PRIDE x SWELL A Night of Living Statues

PRIDE joins Forces With 23 Years of SWELL.

PRIDE x SWELL is set to transform Currumbin Beach into a queer gateway. Join us as we celebrate our organisational launch and circumnavigate the issues the LGBTIQ+SB community face on the Gold Coast. 

Join us as we continue to celebrate the launch of our new organisation on the Fringe Stage at SWELL Sculpture Festival! Meet our team as we open the night with an expert community led panel.
