The Sydney Pride Festival 2021 “Diversity, Equality and Inclusion” will launch at Stonewall Hotel on Thursday 3rd June. Sydney Pride Festival will run from the 3rd June until the 31th June 2021.

This year’s Pride theme is “Diversity, Equality and Inclusion” this ensures fair treatment and opportunity for all of us to move forward together as we create a better future.

2020 Sydney Pride Festival went online with Love stream and in a challenging year of COVID and lockdowns we stayed connected to the LGBTQIA community. LGBTQIA community and our allies could log into our pride events and we were able to reach a wider online audience. The amazing Global Pride broadcast allowed us to see our friends around the world coming together in a 24 hour special.  Pride will continue to have an online presence as well as live events in 2021. Sydney Pride Festival will focus on helping rebuild our community and work closely with organizations, venues, theatres and charities to create exciting events in this grass roots festival. Many LGBTQIA businesses, festivals and venues around the world have closed through the pandemic and some will never return. Here in Australia we have been lucky but it has not been easy. Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras has given us hope and on Saturday 6th march they created an amazing first major event since the pandemic started. Mardi Gras was our last big celebration in 2020 and our first bright light in 2021.

Homosexuality is no longer illegal in Australia, Marriage Equality has been achieved and our community has shown that the Riots of 1969 will always be remembered as the beginning of the Pride Movement.

COVID has made us stronger and more determined than ever to look after each other. Loss of Jobs, Mental Health and fear of the pandemic have had an effect on all of us. We must learn to care and except people who are from different cultures, have different views and come together and have pride in our community. How we interact through discussion, education and understanding is important to our future.
