“Connected in Colour is about celebrating the threads that tie us together as a community. No matter our differences, we are united by Pride”.

Glenn Hansen, co-ordinator, Sydney Pride Festival

2026

This year’s theme, “Connected in Colour,” celebrates the strength, diversity, and unity of our LGBTQIA+ community. 2026 also marks a major milestone, 15 years of Sydney Pride as a month-long festival, highlighting its growth into one of Sydney’s most important celebrations of culture, visibility, and connection. The festival will feature a vibrant mix of drag, theatre, live music, art, community events, forums, and fundraisers. Most of the action will be happening in and around Oxford St and the Rainbow Precinct! In addition to events at Qtopia Sydney and Eternity Playhouse there’s plenty going on in the bars, pubs and clubs - music, dancing and good times too!
