No rain will stop this show so get ready for another massive explosion of glitter, vibrant colour and magnificent costumes this weekend!
Each year the Mardi Gras extravaganza is celebrated by hundreds and thousands of people from across Australia.
Gay, lesbian, bisexual, straight, whoever and whatever it is you’re into, you’re welcome!
This weekend is about loving yourself as you are and accepting people, as they are, and celebrating it in the biggest and best possible way!
Mardi Gras, first born in 1979 on a single night of political protest, the spirit lives on almost four decades later more alive than ever before!
The parade unites people as one bringing together the city to a standstill with thousands of people lining the streets in support of equality, pride and a dazzling spectacle of sparkles.
There’s really nothing else like it and is truly an amazing thing to be a part of, with 184 floats prepared to blow everyone away!
