GOLD COAST GAY DAY

Everybody’s talking about it, from Cairns to Brisbane. The Gold Coast Gay Day of course! Scheduled for May this year, Gay Day will go off come rain, hail or shine. The organising committee is in full swing planning the event. Expect the best artists and DJs to entertain and get you in the mood to party. Organisers are also looking for volunteers to make it all happen, so don’t be shy – get involved. Bigger, bolder, better and brighter; expect new stalls, fabulous local talent and people out to have a fun day. Put Sunday May 2 in your diaries – part of the May Day holiday long weekend.
