Power in Pride: Celebrating our LGBTIQ+ communities

Our 2022 Mardi Gras float recognised the contributions from our LGBTIQ+ communities, especially over the past 2 years.

Happy Mardi Gras!

Power in Pride

This year’s theme was a message of empowerment, inclusion and diversity no matter your identity – we are all unique with different strengths and abilities.

Back at the SCG

The 44th Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade was back at the Sydney Cricket Ground. A big venue demands big capes. The design of our capes included the Progress Pride flag, which recognises all LGBTIQ+ communities.

Thank you to all City of Sydney employees and friends who planned, rehearsed, danced and brought our 2022 float to life.
