Gippsland Pride Gala goes off!

Gippsland Pride Initiative provide visibility, engagement and awareness for LGBTIQA+ people in Gippsland, and they had an amazing day on the weekend celebrating pride with a Roller Derby Pride Cup and a Gala in the evening. Gippsland is a huge space, larger than Melbourne, so for some people they were bussing in for 2 hours before actually getting to the Gala to celebrate – it is pretty special. This is the third year with over 450 people attending and is a night of celebration hosted by Frock Hudson & Freddie Merkin, with entertainment by The Queen Experience & Joanne. They even organised a livestream of the event for the young people and ticket holders in Wangaratta who had their youth pride ball postponed on the weekend so they could still be a part of community and celebrate from their own private pride parties at home.
