It’s official - Real Homosexuals of the Southern Highlands has been approved to march in the iconic 2026 Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade, and we are bursting with pride, excitement, glitter, and pure queer joy.
But that’s not all…
We’re also being featured on ABC’s LIVE National Broadcast!
Yes. You read that right.
ABC - the official broadcast partner for Mardi Gras, will feature our float, our people, our message, and our community during the live television special, with additional interviews and appearances across the broadcast and ABC iView replay.
This is history for the Highlands.
This is visibility.
This is community.
And we want YOU marching beside us.
Calling All Highlands Locals: Join the Movement. March With Us. 🌈
Real Homosexuals is more than a page. It’s more than a group.
It’s a community-driven movement celebrating authenticity, connection, inclusion, and the right for EVERYONE to show up exactly as they are.
And for the first time ever, we’re taking our local queer pride to the biggest LGBTQIA+ stage in Australia - Mardi Gras.
Want to march with us on the 2026 parade route?
It’s FREE for all Real Homosexuals members who join by 20 November 2025.
That’s it.
Become a member before the deadline and you’re IN.
No marching fee.
No strings attached.
Just pride, community, and one hell of a night under the Sydney stars.
