Lesbian Festival is
held in January and February. It features art events, a street parade and a gay
ball in the city centre of Melbourne.
The most famous gay festivity is the Sydney Mardi Gras in February and March. Thousands of gay men and women from all over the world come to Sydney to enjoy gay cruising and the gay nightlife. 21 Days and nights of parties, culture, entertainment and free and open events, not to mention the most spectacularly cheerful and colourful parade on the planet, the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade! It all goes off with a bang in Australia's beautiful harbour city, Sydney NSW.
If
you are in Queensland in June you can celebrate being gay at the Brisbane Pride Festival. Brisbane Pride is now the state's
largest and the country's third largest Gay and Lesbian event, attracting more
than 50,000 Festival-goers over a four week period in the clear and sunny
winter month of June each year.

Perth in Western
Australia has its own Pride Festival. In September it celebrates its gay and
lesbian communities with a month-long party to which everyone is welcome.
Events cover every facet of gay and lesbian culture and include arts and
crafts, films, music, food and drink, sports events, entertainment and the
ever-popular dog show. The carnival gets underway with Fairday in Hyde Park at
Highgate with other events taking place in various other locations throughout
the month. Things come to a noisy and flamboyant close with the Pride Parade
and Fireworks and the Carnivale Pride Party which keeps the celebrations going
late into the night. The event is open to all, including families with
children, and each year attracts thousands of visitors.
If
you come to Australia in November you could join the festivities of the Feast
Festival in Adelaide in South Australia, the most
anticipated lesbian and gay event in Adelaide. It is one of the three major
queer festivals in Australia. Feast offers an amazing program of gay theatre,
cabaret, comedy, film, forums, literature, dance, visual arts, tourism,
sporting and community events.
What sets it apart from other arts festivals is
its ability to create a safe space for gay and lesbian audiences and artists -
a space to explore cutting edge creativity in the company of their peers - a
'queer space'.
