Time Out says

After the last glitter-covered punter has danced their way to the end of the Sydney Mardi Gras Parade route, that big loving energy kicks on at the official Mardi Gras Party. So, slug some Gatorade and get ready to keep on dancing long into the night. 

Celebrity guests in previous years have included Cher, Dua Lipa, George Michael, Cyndi Lauper, Olivia Newton-John, Sam Smith and Kylie Minogue (and there are rumours that Kylie might be appearing this year too, with Troye Sivan!).

This year’s confirmed entertainers are nothing to sneeze at either – including iconic DJ, producer and fashion icon Honey Dijon, British singer Hayla, British musician, DJ and prominent lesbian Romy, and American singer/songwriter (and sometimes RuPaul’s Drag Race guest) Leland, as well as a bunch of hot local DJs and queer performers spread across multiple party zones for eight hours of debauchery between Hordern Pavilion and the Entertainment Quarter. 

This adult party playground is taking over Hordern Pavilion and five more surrounding venues at The Entertainment Quarter from 10pm to 6am on Saturday, March 1. 

Keen? Final tickets for the Mardi Gras Party are on sale now, starting at $229+bf. Find out more and book over here.
