Northside Pride Pool Party

Splash into Pride on the North-Side: Cool Off, Celebrate, Connect!

Queers, Femmes and Thems – Let’s get wet in the name of Pride!

Dive into Pride with Rainbow Yarra, Yarra Leisure, and Thorne Harbour Health and live your Hot Girl Summer fantasy at Naarm’s iconic Fitzroy Pool! This is an alcohol-free event, so please leave the BYO at home.

Float, play, dance, or chill — be yourself as we celebrate Pride poolside!.

Here’s what else to expect on the day!

Great beats, all day.
Featuring local DJs 2 Factor Authentication and Kennty.

Swimwear Hub (12pm–1:30pm)
Thanks to Thread Together, we’ll have a limited selection of brand new & free swimwear and accessories for our queer and trans fam who need swimmers that better reflect their style or affirm their gender — get in early, stock is limited!

(While this is being offered with minus18, Queerspace Youth, ZBGC Youth and Yarra Youth Services in mind, it is open to anyone in our community who might need it).

Free BBQ by Thorne Harbour Health (from 1pm)
Enjoy tasty bites with vegan and halal options, or bring your own picnic and chill with your chosen family on the deck chairs under the sun.
