Kim is riding a wave of hits, including the recently GRAMMY-nominated ‘Unholy’ with Sam Smith. The song also saw Kim become the first publicly trans performer to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100, with the song also becoming a hit locally, at number one on the ARIA Chart.

Among a slew of other bangers, Kim’s discography includes ‘Heart To Break’, ‘Future Starts Now’, ‘Coconuts’ and ‘Malibu’.

Kim also recently released ‘If Jesus Was A Rockstar’, seeing her reflect on finding her own relationship with spirituality, and creating her own more inclusive Jesus after not feeling welcomed by the institution of religion growing up.

Kim will be joined in the Rainbow Republic concert by American band MUNA, as well as Australia’s own Peach PRC, Alter Boy, BVT and Vetta Borne.

The proceedings will be hosted by G Flop and Keiynan Lonsdale at The Domain, as Sydney hands the WorldPride baton to 2025 host city, Washington DC.

“I’m so happy to be back in Sydney supporting WorldPride!” Kim says. “Headlining Mardi Gras was a really inspiring moment back in 2019 and it was one of my favourite Pride events ever, so I’m really excited to see my Australian fans again and take everything to a whole new level.”

“Rainbow Republic will be a celebration for the young and young at heart, set to the sound of LGBTQIA+ creativity,” Sydney WorldPride Chief Executive Kate Wickett says.

“With music ringing out in the Sydney summer, Rainbow Republic will be the perfect way to celebrate everything WorldPride has been, and we are excited to have Kim Petras return to Australia to be with us for this historic moment.”

The Rainbow Republic concert takes place at The Domain (Sydney) on 5 March.
