Brisbane’s biggest and best rainbow festival…
For over 20 years, The Wickham has hosted Big Gay Day – a day filled with fun, frivolity and a whole lot of colour! Featuring musical acts, drag extravaganzas and so much more rainbow love all in support of local LGBTQIA+ charities, Big Gay Day was established back in 2000 and continues to be one of the best celebrations of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Hundreds of acts have graced the Big Gay Day stage, including legends like Boy George, Sporty Spice and The Veronicas and funds raised go to support charities like The Queensland Aid Council, Brisbane Pride and Open Doors Youth Services.
What started as a small gathering has blossomed into a block party, drawing in hundreds of performers and thousands of attendees. The Wickham serves as the perfect venue for this celebration, where every guest is welcomed by the Progress Pride rainbow crossing on the road.
An incredible event that we are continually proud to be a part of!
