Yesterday, tens of thousands of Sydneysiders marched to show their support for the Australian LGBTQIA community, and the legalisation of same-sex marriage in response to the upcoming postal survey.

After rousing words were delivered by a range of speakers, including Opposition leader Bill Shorten and deputy Tanya Plibersek, the march began. Thousands of chanting supporters of the 'Yes' campaign marched from Town Hall, down Park Street and Elizabeth Street, finally making their way to the front of Customs House in Circular Quay.

Obviously, the rally saw an enormous amount of signs and placards. Here's 27 of the best:
