Proud. Deadly. Together. 🌈

Get ready to vibe, groove, and celebrate the beautiful, bold, and boundless spirit of community at the very first NAIDOC Pride Block Party! This family-friendly, all-ages bash is all about love, culture, and connection — a dazzling fusion of rainbow hues and Blak brilliance that turns Preston into the heart of the universe for one epic afternoon.

Hosted by Vic NAIDOC on the sacred ground of Aunty Alma Thorpe’s Gathering Place, this is more than a party — it’s a living, breathing affirmation that every generation, every story, every soul has a place at the table. From tiniest tots to Elders, from Mob to queer fam, allies to newcomers — you’re all welcome, you’re all seen, you’re all celebrated.

Expect live tunes from dope DJs, soul-stirring queer performances that’ll make you laugh, cry, and dance like nobody’s watching, and a menu of delectable food and sweet desserts to fuel the vibes. Bring your whole crew — this is a community connection like no other, where the energy is contagious and the love is limitless.

As @bebe.rt.oliver says:

So much of being Blak is about community, and the same is true of being queer. I’m excited to see the NAIDOC Pride event become the Block Party this year because it creates a special space for children, young people, Elders, families, Mob and our rainbow community to celebrate and stand proudly together. Every generation has a place and every story adds to the strength of who we are.

Slap on your brightest glitter, your most radical pride tee, or your coziest mob print — the dress code is LOUD & PROUD. And yes, it’s totally free. Zero dollars. Just pure, unadulterated joy.

Don’t just hear about it — BE PART OF IT. It’s a moment, it’s a movement, it’s your next favorite memories in the making.
