PRIDE ART AWARD Saturday 11th June 5pm.

Tap Gallery Pride Art Tap Gallery Pride Art Award
Be Brave, Be Strong, Be You.

The Sydney Pride Festival 2022 “Be Brave, Be Strong, Be You.” will launch at Stonewall Hotel on Thursday 2nd June. Sydney Pride Festival will run from the 2^nd June until the 30^th June 2022

This year Sydney Pride Festival is about empowering each other “Be Brave, Be Strong, Be You!” will focus on being your authentic self and finding pride. Through the love of family, friends and our community standing with us and supporting us we shine, flourish and find our truth. Equality, Visibility and the opportunity for all of us to move forward together as we create a better future.

Sydney Pride Winter festival will remember the Riots of 1969 at the Stonewall Inn Greenwich Village. The Heroes that lead the way and fought for our rights over 50 years ago. The beginning of the modern gay movement and the inspiration to the 78er’s who paved the way in Sydney. The LGBTQI community are all under one fabulous Umbrella and together we continue to create change and acceptance. 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.

Sydney Pride Festival is a grass roots festival and a time to pass on the history and raise awareness and education of our LGBTQI Charities and organizations. This year we will be putting a focus on the strength of our Community and remember our pursuit for acceptance and total Equality for all our LGBTQI people. Sydney Pride can reach out and help those struggling with Sexual identity, bullying, drugs or just feeling that life is too hard to stand strong and ask for help. Standing Together in Solidarity. This is Pride! Be Brave, Be Strong and Be You. We stand together with love and Solidarity.

Sydney Pride Festival is a not for profit event and supports a wide range of LGBTQI Charities, Organizations and businesses. This Sydney Pride festival will include events throughout Sydney that are fun and affordable for everyone. The events will raise much needed funds for Charity and showcase our community, our struggles and our achievements.

Last year the Sydney pride Festival contained over 100 events. The festival will feature Art, Cinema, Trivia, Debates, Sports, Stories and entertainment available on our Love stream. The Sydney Pride Festival would like to thank the volunteers, event organizers, sponsors and LGBTQI community and all our friends for all their continued support.
