What a fun-filled 10 days it was, ending in the largest Pride PARADE for a decade. Pride WA would like to thank everyone in the community who attended the many PrideFEST 2014 events and the 2014 Pride PARADE.

We reflected, we renewed, we rejoiced!

Thanks to our fantastic sponsors: Lotterywest, The City of Perth, The City of Vincent, Brookfield Place, Curtin University, Herbert Smith Freehills, Melville Renault, MRA, UWA, 92.9, Beyond Blue and Instant Products.

We also want to say a huge thanks to: The Event Agency, Muse Bureau, Morse Code, CASM, Carefully Considered Creative, the Incredible Group, OUTinPerth, RTR-FM and the many people who volunteered their time to help with the events. Without the support and help of these individuals and organisations PrideFEST would not be possible.

Thank you to all the performers, artists and community groups for a wonderful program of events. Special thanks to: NRC Communications and Entertainment One Films for the ‘Pride’ film fundraiser movie night, Harry and Melanie from HMS Popup for A Saucy Little Secret, Ali Bodycoat, Libby Hammer, Graham Wood and the Ellington Jazz Club for Over the Rainbow, Tim Brown and the fabulous team at Connections Nightclub, Play Lovers for the Sordid Lives theatre fundraiser event and Famous Sharron for all the Selfies.

Congratulations to the winners of the 2014 Pride PARADE prizes: Connections Nightclub, Dykes on Bikes, GRAI, WA Samba, Bassanovas and Charles Denham

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Pride PARADE 2014 – you helped make it one of the best!

In 2015, Pride WA looks forward to celebrating 25 years with our community!
