The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras is finally upon us - and this year, there's more than one way to keep up with all the fabulousness and (eco-friendly) glitter.
On Saturday March 2, you can watch the Sydney Mardi Gras parade live from the comfort of your very own lounge room - anywhere in the world. That's because SBS will be live streaming the parade in its entirety via SBS On Demand and SBS Australia's Twitter and Facebook accounts. Make sure you tweet along under the official festival hashtag - #SydneyMardiGras.
Then the following night (Sunday March 3) you can relive the magic with our wonderful hosts: news presenter Narelda Jacobs, comedian Joel Creasey, The Feed’s Patrick Abboud and local comedian Zoë Coombs Marr. The team will be giving the rundown on floats, interviewing participants, sharing stories from the parade and bringing the night's highlights straight to your TV. The broadcast will also be streamed live on SBS On Demand.
As well as full parade coverage, you can also catch up on all your queer cinema with SBS On Demand's Queer Binge, which boasts a wonderful lineup of queer films, documentaries and television shows from Australia and around the world.
