Pride is on parade

The annual Eumundi Pride Fair Day is back this month with a new fabulous Pride Paws Parade and a whole day of fun planned for everyone.
The event is now in its 10th year and will be held on Saturday 25 February at the Eumundi Amphitheatre.
Everyone is welcome to head along and take part in the all-inclusive, family fun day celebrating the Sunshine Coast’s diversity by bringing together members of the LGBTIQ community, and their friends and family, in a fun and supportive environment.
The underlying 2017 festival theme is Under The Rainbow – acknowledging that everyone is born under the same sky and is equal.
The festivities will be held across two stages – the Eumundi Amphitheatre Stage, which will be hosted by renowned Sunshine Coast drag queen Melony Brests, and the Rainbow Stage, which will be hosted by the ever fabulous drag queen diva Sal Monalla.
The line-up of entertainment includes a Welcome to Country with Lyndon Davis, a ride-through by the infamous Dykes on Bikes, special appearances by drag queen supremos Holly Wood and Candy Surprise, Mettaphor, Lea Sanson, Darren Adler, The Ukulele Sisters, Annie J and Fusion, Lizzy Maynes, Burlesque L’amour and Kristy Apps and the Shotgun Shirleys.
There will also be balloon artistry fun and face painting for families at the Kids Zone in the Amphitheatre area of the markets.
The new Pride Paws Parade will be a showcase of beautiful and best dressed pooches from across the whole Sunshine Coast community with all dogs and their parents (owners) invited to take part, with prizes and awards on offer for the Most Glamorous Pride Pooch, Best Pride Parent Look-alike, and Best Rainbow Pride Pooch.
