River Pride Parade

Set sail and help make Brisbane River/Maiwar sparkle with pride in the dazzling rainbow flotilla.

Join the flotilla of pride! Celebrating all our LGBTQIA+ communities and allies in true Brisbane style… by boat! From yachts to jetskis, join the colourful flotilla cruising from West End to Brisbane Powerhouse.

GOT A BOAT? GET ON BOARD!

Let’s make this the biggest parade yet! Whether it’s your boat or someone you know, register it in the parade to take part and show your pride.

WATCH FROM THE SHORE

Show your pride and join the celebration from the river’s edge. Line the banks of the Brisbane River and cheer on the colourful flotilla as it cruises through the heart of the city. Catch the parade from South Bank, Queen’s Wharf or Howard Smith Wharves, then join the crowds at New Farm Park as the flotilla reaches its grand finale and the celebrations continue at Brisbane Powerhouse.

A colorful, curved map showing a route with four stops: South Bank, Queens Wharf, Howard Smith Wharves, and Brisbane Powerhouse, ending at a finish point. Start and check-in points are also labeled.
