Gold Coast shines for Gay Day
Gold Coast Gay Day takes over the Parklands Showgrounds in Southport this Saturday, May 12, with one of its biggest line-ups of performers and hosts in the event鈥檚 history.
LGBT icon and showgirl Carlotta will officially open the day party before Gold Coast drag star Trixie O Nassis and Martini Ice take over hosting duties for the afternoon.
Headliners Zoe Badwi and Emily Williams (pictured) will be joined by Brisbane band the Dream Poppies, Shiny Shiny, Adrenalin Australia, Love Like Hate, Julia Rose and Felicity Lawless across two stages.
DJs Sammy, LX, RJ Simms and Jake will provide tunes.
Gay Day鈥檚 Hot Bodz competition will also return with some influence from the Rip & Roll campaign.
The Studio 44 Artspace team will invite partygoers to join them at the 鈥楥hurch of Free Love鈥�, a space that will deliver Australian talent through live music, artwork, food and open-mindedness.
Studio 44 Artspace is dedicated to bridging divides, freedom of expression, and promoting arts and creativity.
