SQS Mondays – Kinselas, 17 August

Bring your whole self to SQS Sydney Queer Social — a warm, welcoming space for everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community and allies. Whether you’re arriving solo, with friends, or just popping in for a drink, you’ll find your people here. No pressure, no performance — just good company, great music, and the kind of vibe that makes you want to stay awhile.

Kinselas Hotel’s Taylor Square location sets the stage for a relaxed evening with drinks specials, tasty pub classics, and a karaoke corner that turns strangers into duet partners. From 7pm to 9pm, enjoy $6 house beer, wine, and spirits — and don’t skip the $16 pub meals. Fresh menu, familiar comforts, and zero judgment. Just show up and enjoy.

Want to stretch the evening? Stay for karaoke, strike up a conversation, or grab a booth and watch the room unfold. This isn’t a party — it’s a social. Think of it like your favorite local hangout, but with more rainbow energy and zero awkward small talk.

And yes — there’s a raffle. Every Monday at 8:30pm, SQS draws prizes from voucher bundles to dinners to drink tabs. All proceeds support the group’s mission to march in Sydney Mardi Gras 2027. Every ticket helps build a bigger, brighter LGBTQIA+ presence on the big float.

Pro tip: You don’t need to RSVP to attend — but if you want a guaranteed seat or to join the raffle, grab your spot early. No refunds, so plan your night accordingly.
