Drag icon Courtney Act and ABCQueer’s Mon Schafter will be at the helm of the hosting desk, and joined throughout the broadcast by chart-topper, G Flip, and award-winning actor, Remy Hii.

Soaking up the atmosphere on Oxford Street will be a host of roving reporters including comedian Mel Buttle, ABC NEWS presenter Jeremy Fernandez and TikTok creator Louis Hanson – who will be getting the inside track on the Parade route.

Triple J Drive’s Abby and Tyrone will also be getting amongst the action, while Latifa Tee will be bringing you an electric edition of Triple J House Party.

This year will be the ABC’s third Parade broadcast, with more than 12,000 participants expected to march, dance and parade up Oxford Street in a colourful and sparkling celebration of diversity.
