PrideFEST is almost upon us, with celebrations getting started this weekend with a launch party at Connections Nightclub.

Get down to Connies from 6pm and get into the season with tunes from our girl Cinnamon, Casual Connection and Hello Sailor.

BarbieQ and Ginava will be putting on a show with a little help from Melbourne’s Sarah Pax, and the legendary Strykermeyer will be taking to the stage for the last time ever!

Then on Sunday, Fairday makes its much anticipated return to the PrideFEST line up in the new location of Birdwood Square.

Bring a picnic, soak up the sun and connect with WA’s LGBTI community organisations, members and allies from 10am.

Haven’t had enough? Well then head down to The Court Hotel after Fairday for the after party. Wind down with pizza and jug deals, or keep the party going on the dance floor – the theme is Freedom after all! You decide.

…and this is just the opening weekend! Make sure to grab your copy of the October issue of OUTinPerth for your guide to all things Pride – culminating in the parade and after parties on November 25th.

PrideFEST Opening Party is at Connections Nightclub from 6pm this Friday October 27.

Fairday will be at Birdwood Square, Mount Lawley from 10am this Sunday October 29, followed by celebrations at The Court Hotel from 4pm.
