The Pride Festival is a month of events beginning with the City of Perth Pride Fairday on 30 September and concluding with the Pride Parade through the streets of Northbridge on 27 October 2007.
City of Perth Pride Fairday - Sunday 30 September - 10am to 6pm - Russel Square, Northbridge
Fairday is always the ideal start to Pride Month, with our entire community coming together to celebrate our Pride in a relaxed and festive setting that enables businesses, community groups and government agencies to interact through stalls and entertainment; live bands, cabaret singers, and dancers. Families can picnic on the lawn beneath the shade of the trees. There’s activities for the kids, and the Dog Show.
Pride Parade - Saturday 27 October - from 8pm - Northbridge
Perth’s first Pride Parade was held during the day in 1990 to protest against the oppression and discrimination that continued to be felt throughout our gay and lesbian community. Over the year’s, the Parade was transformed into a spectacular display of visibility and diversity and is now held at night to mark the end of October’s Pride festival.
For other events check out the Pride WA website, and download the festival guide!
The closing party (UNIVERSall) will be bigger than ever this year, at the Belmont Race Course from 10pm on 27 October, so after the Pride Parade. Tickets through Moshtix.
It’s spring, and time again for the Perth Royal Show!
This year it’s happening from Saturday 29 September to Saturday 6 October, as usual at the Claremont Showgrounds.
There’s too much going on to list, so I suggest you head over to the official website and check out all the details!!
There’s even a showbag guide you can search!

Spicks and Specks in coming to Perth for a live show at the Perth Convention Exhibition Centre on Thursday 22, Friday 23, and Saturday 24 May 2008!
If you only see one stage show loosely based on a comedic music quiz show then this is it! Adam, Alan and Myf are cooking up a live show of Speck-tacular proportions to help get Spicks and Specks fans through the long spicks-less and specks-less summer non rating period.
Tickets on sale from Monday, 8 October, 9:00am at BOCS Ticketing. ($46.90) (this will sell out!)
Venue: PCEC
The Veronicas are touring Australia again and will perform in Perth at Burswood Theatre on Friday 30 November 2007. It’s an all ages show.
Hook Me Up, the debut single from their forthcoming album, has sent The Veronicas flying back into the public spotlight with a bang. Signalling a change for the band, Hook Me Up takes The Veronicas to a new level as they – quite convincingly - take on electro-pop. Steering the girls in a more mature direction, Hook Me Up sets the bar high for the hotly anticipated follow up record to their 2005 ARIA-award winning debut The Secret Life of…
