The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras began in 1978 as a parade down the city’s Oxford Street to mark International Gay Solidarity Day (in commemoration of the Stonewall Riots in New York’s Greenwich Village).
The following year, the event became known as the Mardi Gras and has grown year on year to become one of the biggest gay and lesbian festivals anywhere in the world. The Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras will show Sydney what it means to come of age as this iconic event returns for its 30th anniversary in 2008. Read the full story at Campervan hire Australia
