The Sydney Mardi Gras Parade is not like other gay Pride events where the crowds eventually join the parade route and become united. In Sydney, barriers are placed the night before alongside the Parade route to hold the spectators back. The 78ers, who reunited from across Australia to march on Saturday night, have since been praised as a valiant group of people who showed incredible bravery on that cold, terrifying night.

Earlier in the day, eager party-goers had lined up along the Oxford Street barricades — some since the morning — to get the best vantage point to watch the parade. Rainbows, giant pot plants and an oversized yak were among the quirky floats, while the music of Queen, PNAU, Daft Punk and John Farnham reverberated through the city's gay district for the annual party. Split across six venues, run wild at the ultimate pride playground – from the tech house rave at Liberty Hall, whole-body house in the Hordern Pavilion, the pumping Forecourt and every other corner to explore.
