Pride in the Park will bring the rainbows to Curtin University with a camp day of festivities, drag and the return of the beloved ‘Gay Olympics’.

Run across the 80s and 90s, the Gay Olympics brought the community together for a number of events including The Handbag Throw, High Heel Sprints, Dizzy Lizzy and more – and they’re all coming back this year as the Rainbow Olympics.

There will also be drag queen story time for the kids (and kids at heart), giant board games, volleyball, a bouncy castle, face painting, music, food, fun with Famous Sharron and the one and only Feminem as your MC.

Get down to Henderson Court at Curtin University on Sunday October 21st from midday and join in the fun for free! Get more info on Facebook.
