Sydney Pride Festival 2026. Connected In Colour.

To All Community Partners and Event Producers - Be part of Sydney Pride Festival 21st - 30th June 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. We also honour the legacy of the 78ers of the first Sydney Mardi Gras and the impact of the 1969 Stonewall Riots, recognising the history that continues to shape Pride today.

Expressions of Interest are now open for individuals, venues, organisations, and producers who would like to host or participate in an event. To be involved, please complete the attached EOI form and return it to info@sydneypride.com.

Final submission deadline: Tuesday 13th May 2026. The full program will be released at the end of May. We encourage you to get involved and help bring Sydney Pride Festival 2026 to life. For updates, visit www.sydneypride.com or follow @sydneypridefestival.

“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.
