Confetti, glitter and rainbow flags have flown at another year of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras as thousands turned out to support inclusion, diversity and queer culture.
Among a sea of leather, glitter, sequins and sparkles, the spirit of protest was also present, with keffiyehs and pro-Palestinian signs featuring in the parade.
The 78ers — who took part in the very first parade — held a large banner that read "Stop Police Attacks on Gays, Women and Blacks". They were cheered on as they marched along streets that have this week been added to Australia’s National Heritage List in recognition of queer history and culture.
