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.
