SydneyThe New South Wal pal has long been regnised as one of the top statns the world for LGBTQI travellers, and around Mardi Gras time, you’ll feel like the whole cy has turned gay. We probably don’t need to tell you that much of the party actn Sydney occurs around Oxford Street Darlghurst and Kg Street Newtown, or that the most popular gay cy beach are at North Bondi and Tamarama.
For a lbian-iendly bar Sydney try the Sly Fox Enmore on a Wednday favoure gay gut hoe Sydney is Governors on Fzroy Surry Hills, a place that feels a b like stayg at your super-posh uncle’s hoe – but book ahead bee this place is popular (if you haven’t already booked for Mardi Gras – good luck).

MelbourneOften lled Atralia’s cultural pal, Melbourne draws much more fluence om Europe s archecture, fashn and food – and for the gay traveller may feel like a more chilled out and refed experience after the glz of Sydney. Better still, do an art tour of Melbourne – check out the Centre for Contemporary Photography Fzroy, vis the NGV and ACMI at Feratn square, and take a drk overlookg the Yarra at gay scene Melbourne is basilly divid between the north si and south si of the cy.

Daylford is popular at this time of year, so book early and check you and your squeeze at one of the gay-iendly gutho such as Laki at Daylford or the Green Door and spend a rejuvenatg weekend havg a long bnch at Breakfast and Beer fe, pesg the book and antique stor, walkg and swimmg at the lak, dulgg yourself wh a massage or tantric healg ssn, or visg one of Daylford’s many galleri such as the betifully renovated Convent Gallery. My advice is to spend the night Hobart at the charmg gay-owned Corda’s Cottag takg the f and galleri around the betiful sandstone buildgs at Salaman Place, then hire a vehicle and h the road. One of the bt-known Atralian histori of the game, wrten by Johnny Warren, a former pta of the men’s team, has the ironilly tend tle “Sheilas, Wogs, and Poofters”—a tr of Atralian slurs for, rpectively, women, southern-European immigrants, and gay men, the three groups thought to make up soccer’s nstuency.
