PRIDE MONTH 2026

Something DEADLY is coming to Ballarat Pride Month.

QUEER BLAK+ DEADLY is launching a month-long celebration of culture, pride and community on Wadawurrung Country.

Pride Month in Ballarat will be the terrain for a ground-breaking program bringing together Queer Blak LGBTIQ+SB First Nations artists, performers, activists and community voices from across Australia. Through performances, conversations, cultural gatherings and community celebration, the program will amplify Blak excellence
while creating spaces of visibility, pride and connection.

The month will start with a vibrant community cabaret-style performance event celebrating culture, storytelling and drag excellence, with all profits donated to the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners.

Queer Blak+ Deadly is proud, powerful and made for community. Ballarat Pride Month is about to begin in a bold new way.
