Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras (SGLMG) is one of the oldest continuously operating LGBTQI organisations in Australia.
SGLMG was built on the foundations laid by early community activists who fought for LGBTQI rights in a time of wide-spread, institutionalised oppression and discrimination. From these origins, SGLMG has evolved to include a strong focus on celebration while maintaining a commitment to social justice for LGBTQI communities.
Giovanno Campolo-Arcidiaco, Co-chair of the SGLMG, launched the program of events and activities for 2019: Performing Arts, Visual Arts, Music Events, Parties, Sporting Events, Community Events, Family Events and Talks/Workshops.
The event aims at celebrating LGBTQI culture in all its forms.
