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.
Atralia is one of the world's iendlit statns for travelers the LGBTQIA+ muny wh plenty of pri events and gay-iendly tablishments to choose om. * gay friendly australia *
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.

Photograph: /flickrTasmaniaTasmania has e a long way sce beme the last Atralian state to pass gay law reform 1997. Today boasts a small but visible gay scene Hobart and Lncton, and offers many good optns for gay travellers. Hobart even has s own LGBTQI dance bar at Flamgos, but tth one wouldn’t travel to Tasmania to vis gay night clubs.
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.
Tasmania also now has more acknowledgement of s same sex history tourism rmatn cludg early gay explorers, nvict love and “psdo-mal”. This means that travelers of the muny (or those who intify as lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr, queer, tersex, and asexual) should feel generally safe, supported, and accepted anywhere the untry and shouldn't be worried about displayg PDA wh their same-sex partner. This is largely due to numero ernmental laws makg discrimatn based on sexual orientatn illegal all stat and the variety of gay-iendly pubs, rtrants, hotels, clubs, and other public venu sttered throughout all major ci.

The areas surroundg Oxford St and Taylor Square Darlghurst are the epicentre of Atralia’s gay muny, wh Darlghurst the fol pot of the annual Sydney Gay and Lbian Mardi Gras each year. Compared to Sydney’s ncentrated LGBTQIA+ neighbourhoods, Melbourne has a more diverse and well-tegrated gay populatn. Melbourne’s CBD, Fzroy and Collgwood all offer refed bars, upsle rtrants and cultural attractns (perfect for the effortlsly posh gays), while if you're more ‘hipster gay’ cled, Bnswick featur the ual hallmarks of gaybourhoods wh a profn of f, street art, and quirky shops.

While queer Atralians tend to hab the ner-cy suburbs of pal ci, further afield Daylford (often affectnately known as Gaylford) li a thrivg gay muny. After celebratg at the annual Brisbane Pri Ftival New Farm, ’s only a short skip to Fortu Valley to enjoy some great gay nightlife. The streets of Perth Cy, Maylands (Gaylands) and Bayswater (Gayswater) e alive durg the month-long PriFEST, wh lol-favoure events like Fairday, Bake-Off and the Para beg highlights.
Perth has a few nu beach that are popular amongst gay crowds, wh the most popular beg North Swanbourne Beach, Warnbro Beach and the seclud bays of Rottnt Island. Where do the quiet gays go?
It’s fair to assume Canberra would be filled wh heteronormative, sued up policians, but statistilly speakg, ACT has more gay and lbian upl than any other state or terrory.
