The 47th annual Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade is set to take over Oxford Street, Flinders Street and Anzac Parade on Saturday 1 March 2025. Set your true self free as the Mardi Gras magic makes it’s way down the heritage-listed Parade route for one of the largest LGBTQIA+ nighttime parades in the world.

Over 200 floats from every corner of our communities will strut, stroll and roll from Hyde Park to Moore Park on Sydney’s night-of-nights. As is tradition, our fearless protectors the Dykes on Bikes, LGBTQIA+SB First Nations communities and our beloved 78ers will lead over 11,000 marchers under the 2025 Festival theme: FREE TO BE.

Join hundreds of thousands of people from Hyde Park to Moore Park in free and premium ticketed viewing areas to witness the wonders of the LGBTQIA+ communities. Reminding the world the beauty, power and joy that comes from freedom.

The Sydney Mardi Gras Parade is for everyone, that’s why there will be a free Accessible Parade Viewing Area (by application) that includes a free shuttle to and from public transport, low-sensory zones, flat road level access, accessible amenities and more.
