A vibrant parade celebrating pride in all forms, followed by a BBQ at Nobbys Beach.
After the epic vibes of last year’s parade DJ Lisa Anita spinning beats from her legendary DJ bicycle, Coles BBQ smokin’ up the good stuff, and a whole lotta dancing, we’re back, baby… and we’re going BIGGER, BOLDER, and BALLOONIER! This isn’t your average parade this is a rainbow-powered, glitter-blasted, all-wheels-welcome celebration of pride and pure JOY!
Let’s turn the Newcastle foreshore into a sparkling sea of colour, creativity, and community. Think feathers, balloons, glitter explosions, and costumes so bright you’ll need sunnies to watch the parade!
So bring your friends, your family, your fur babies, and most importantly bring your boldest, brightest self. It’s time to roll into 2025 like the dazzling stars we are. Let’s light up the city with love, laughter, and a WHOLE lotta sparkle. Newcastle, are you ready to roll?
