On 18 February 2023, mark your calendars for a fantastic afternoon of live music and entertainment by the Kaleidoscope Dream band, to be followed by performances from some of the city’s most popular drag queens.
Hosted by Julie McCrossin, the event will include speeches from the La Perouse Local Aboriginal Land Council, Cr Dylan Parker the Mayor of Randwick, and Albert Kruger the CEO of Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
Meanwhile, the walkway is being updated to include five additional Progress Pride Flag colours, with works commencing from 1 Feb 2023.
The Coogee Rainbow Walkway is a 50-metre rainbow walkway installed on Coogee Beach Promenade as part of a Randwick City Council proposal to celebrate diversity, inclusivity and equality.
The installation was meant to be temporary, when it was installed in time for the opening of the Mardi Gras season in 2020, but Council voted for it to become a permanent fixture at the Coogee Beach in late 2021.
