More than 80,000 revellers are expected at the event. You can enjoy the summer sunshine, shop the community stalls for your festival outfit, or join the fun and games in the Sports Village. Even your fur babies will be accounted for – they can strut their stuff in the world-famous Doggywood competition. Ruff!

“Fair Day is a cornerstone of the Mardi Gras season and brings LGBTQIA+ people of all walks of life together for a day of celebration alongside our family and friends,” Mardi Gras CEO Albert Kruger says. “It is an opportunity for us to remember our history and toast to the resoundingly positive spirit of our community.”
Victoria Park Pool will be open on the day, so bring your swimmers if you want to take a dip! There's free entry for kids under the age of ten years, too.
