Paraded with pride

GLAMOROUS pooches will take centre stage in the Pride Paws Parade as part of the Pride Fair Day at Eumundi Markets on Saturday 27 February.
The Pride Fair Day is a flagship event of the three-day Sunshine Coast Pride Festival which takes place between 26 and 28 February this year.
Eumundi Market spokesman Craig Walter said all dogs and their parents from across the whole Sunshine Coast community are invited to take part in the Pride Paws Parade and registration is free.
“We’ll have prizes and awards on offer for the most glamorous pride pooch, best pride parent look-alike, and best rainbow pride pooch,” he said.
“We can guarantee good times and lots of laughs, and cannot wait to see the outfits and doggy bling on display.”
The hub of the festivities will be the Eumundi Amphitheatre and will be hosted by renowned drag queen Monica Fusions who is sure to add a splash of colour, pizzazz and fabulousness.
There is also an additional performance space which will be set up in the centre of the markets and will be hosted by Sunshine Coast’s very own drag queen Melony Brests.
The day promises fun for all the family with a Kids Zone, tug-o-war and a diverse line-up of entertainment for the whole family.
“It’s a day of fun, great music, big laughs and getting together against the backdrop of the Eumundi Markets, home of the best artisan retail therapy on the planet,” Craig said.
