DESCRIPTION:Boy George\, Bonnie Tyler\, Tony Hadley Ex Spandau Ballet & Starship ft MickeyThomas to tour Yarra Valley\, Hunter Valley and Sandstone Point. \nBoy George of Culture Club performing his greatest hits\, Bonnie Tyler\, Tony Hadley (ex Spandau Ballet) and Starship featuring Mickey Thomas will perform in Australia next summer as part of a new concert series celebrating legendary musicians from around the world. \nThe Timeless Summer Tour 2025 makes its debut in January 2025\, packed with a stellar line- up of international superstars from the 70s and 80s who will tour Yarra Valley’s Rochford Wines (January 24)\, Hunter Valley’s Hope Estate (January 25) and Queensland’s Sandstone Point (January 27). With the Australia Day Public Holiday falling on January 27\, there is opportunity for people wanting to attend the Yarra Valley event to extend their long weekend to include the Friday before. \nBoy George is a vibrant icon who has left an indelible mark on the pop and new wave genres. He rose to prominence as the lead vocalist of the band Culture Club\, which he co-founded in 1981. The band’s debut album\, Kissing to Be Clever\, catapulted them to international fame with hit singles like Do You Really Want to Hurt Me and Time (Clock of the Heart). Throughout the 80s\, Culture Club dominated charts worldwide with subsequent albums such as Colour by Numbers and Waking Up with the House on Fire\, delivering memorable hits like Karma Chameleon and The War Song. \nBonnie Tyler is one of Wales’ best-known performers\, achieving chart success all over the world. She is recognised for her distinctive husky voice\, and a long list of hit singles including Total Eclipse of the Heart\, It’s a Heartache\, Holding Out for a Hero\, Lost in France\, More Than a Lover\, Bitterblue and If I Sing You a Love Song. In her 50-year career\, Bonnie has performed for audiences in countries across the world\, and she has enjoyed critical acclaim for her recent albums Rocks and Honey and Between The Earth and the Stars. \nTony Hadley (ex Spandau Ballet) made his mark on the music industry as the soulful baritone voice of the iconic 80s band Spandau Ballet.

Beyond Spandau Ballet\, Tony Hadley has pursued a successful solo career\, releasing albums and songs such as The State of Play and Talking to the Moon\, which received critical acclaim. \nMickey Thomas is the owner of the soaring voice that propelled Starship through the 80s. He made his mark in 1976 as lead vocalist on the mega-hit Fooled Around And Fell In Love with The Elvin Bishop Band before joining Jefferson Starship as the lead vocalist in 1979\, recording a string of hits including Jane\, No Way Out\, Find Your Way Back\, Stranger\, and Layin’ It on the Line. The group was renamed Starship in 1985 and went on to record three #1 hit songs including We Built This City\, Sara\, and Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now\, from the film\, Mannequin\, which also was an Academy Award nominee. Their hit It’s Not Over ‘Til It’s Over became Major League Baseball’s theme in 1987. \nTimeless Summer Tour promoter Glenn Meikle is excited to be bringing such a high calibre line- up to Australia. \n“All of the artists performing at Timeless Summer Live are iconic musicians who have paved the way for many. Even though they were introduced to the world in the 70s and 80s\, their music is just as impactful today as they were when they were released\,” Meikle said. \n“Timeless Live is excited to have such an iconic line-up on our debut Timeless Summer Tour and we’re confident people across the generations will enjoy the experience\,” he said. \nTickets for the R18 Timeless Summer Tour 2025 will be available for pre-sale from 10am on July 24\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Sydney World Pride 2023
DESCRIPTION:WorldPride is a global Pride celebration that happens every few years in a different city. The right to host it is licenced by InterPride which has representatives from nearly every Pride organisation around the world. Previous WorldPride celebrations include New York in 2019 marking 50 years since the Stonewall uprising\, and Copenhagen in 2021 celebrating both WorldPride and the EuroGames. Sydney was chosen by InterPride members to be the host of WorldPride in 2023\, and we couldn’t be more proud.  \nSydney WorldPride events will take place from February 17 2023 until March 5 2023\, with the official Sydney WorldPride Opening Ceremony taking place on February 24\, a First Nations Gathering Space\, a game-changing Human Rights Conference\, an unforgettable Pride March across the Sydney Harbour Bridge\, a closing ceremony and a sensational party on Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach (plus lots more events still to be announced)! \nWe are developing a full arts and cultural program across Greater Sydney reflective of our diverse LGBTIQ+ communities. It will span theatre\, visual arts\, music and cabaret and have a strong focus on First Nations peoples and the Asia-Pacific. \nWe’ve taken the opportunity to bring WorldPride to the southern hemisphere for the first time – not only representing Australian states and territories\, but also bringing focus to our neighbouring countries in the Asia-Pacific region who do not all have the same level of equality and human rights that we do. \nSydney WorldPride will help shine a light on these injustices. Our Human Rights Conference will be a platform for discussion\, ideas exchange\, and thought leadership. We’re aiming to give marginalised communities solidarity and support on the world stage like never before. \nWe’re also committed to ensuring our festival is accessible to people of all abilities. Transport\, communications\, amenities and related services will be optimised for overall comfort and enjoyment of attendees. To utilise accessibility from anywhere in the world\, all possible digital avenues will be explored so that remote audiences can be a part of Sydney WorldPride online.

SUMMARY:Dreamland Miami NYE feat: Magic Mike Live

Equal parts empowering and exhilarating\, the show features the hottest and most talented men in the country performing daring dance routines and specialty acts in front of\, behind\, above\, and all around the audience.  Piano House Queen LP Giobbi will also perform the evening\, along with DJs Danny Verde\, Isaac Escalante and Matt Denton. \n“Like Dreamland\, MAGIC MIKE LIVE is a fun\, sexy celebration where everyone is welcome\, and there’s truly a little something for everyone\,” said Vincent Marini\, Executive Producer of MAGIC MIKE LIVE. “Our team has worked hard to develop a show that is empowering\, exciting\, and representational of the people who come to watch and cheer on this incredibly talented cast of performers night after night. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with one of the largest LGBT+ nightlife events in the country this New Year’s Eve and we encourage everyone to get their tickets for our stunning new touring production of MAGIC MIKE LIVE in Miami before it’s gone!” \nFor the first party of 2023\, Horse Meat Disco joins Grammy-nominated Purple Disco Machine for an all-day marathon event at The Oasis Wynwood. \nThroughout the inspiring multi-day experience\, Dreamland offers complimentary wellness programs\, local and international gastronomic gatherings\, visual art installations\, large-scale art pieces\, interactive exhibitions\, and much more. \nJake Resnicow is the premiere promoter in the LGBTQ+ space.  He was recently honored as one of the OUT100 Most Influential LGBTQ People of the Year. His Pride Festivals in New York\, Miami\, Las Vegas and Los Angeles are spectacles\, and he’s produced some of the most prestigious fundraiser events\, raising over $30M for organizations including Life Ball\, Trevor Project\, The White Party Gala\, Ali Forney Center\, Lambda Legal and It Gets Better. \nA portion of the proceeds from Dreamland will benefit the Theresa Velasquez Memorial Scholarship program at Femme House\, a non-profit organization that fosters opportunities for women and gender-expansive individuals in the technical and behind the scenes areas of music. \n“Less than 1% of charting artists are LGBTQIA+\,” Resnicow explains.  “Together\, we will change this with a new scholarship program in honor of my dear friend DJ Theresa.” \nAt only 36\, DJ Theresa rose through the ranks to become one of the top female DJs in the USA; even being named on Billboard’s Pride List of Industry-Shaping LGBTQ Executives. On June 24\, 2021\, Theresa was scheduled to headline Jake Resnicow’s Pride event. Instead\, her life was tragically taken away in the Surfside building collapse. \n“Theresa’s undeniable talent for music helped lift people’s spirits\, and her DJ sets brought joy to everyone’s hearts\,” Resnicow reflects.  “We pledge to continue her legacy by providing opportunities to aspiring LGBTQIA+ artists.” \nThe current fellows of the Theresa Velasquez Memorial Scholarship program are GeeXella (they/them) and SEVYN.  GeeXella is an Atlanta-based Black/Latinx\, Non-binary and Queer multidisciplinary artist who founded Duval Folx\, a dance party that brings awareness to the violence Queer/Trans and BIPOC communities face in the South.   SEVYN is a Washington DC-born\, LA based DJ and host of the “FLUID” show on dublab Radio. \nTickets for all events are available now at Dreamlandnye.com

SUMMARY:Darwin Pride 2022
DESCRIPTION:In 1985\, a group of passionate Darwinites came together to create the very first Darwin Pride Festival – promoting diversity\, equality and celebrating LGBTQIA+ communities. These brave individuals shined the spotlight on issues that needed to change and celebrated what already made us shine. Over three decades on\, we’re continuing what they began. \nIn 2019\, Darwin Pride became an incorporated association for the purposes of: \n  \n\nprogram  and  facilitate  events  throughout  the  year  which  meet  the  needs  of  the  LGBTQIA+ community liaise with government\, community groups and members of the public to understand and meet the needs of the LGBTQIA+ community and the broader community as appropriate\nfundraise and utilise available grants to provide the above services\ndonate to causes and events which we believe supports the ethos\, objects and purposes of the Association\n\n  \nTop End Pride is run by volunteers who are passionate about equality\, and diversity. We meet on a regular basis to plan and coordinate events and to work closely with local Government bodies to ensure we have our voices heard for future generations. \nIt is our mission to continue to raise awareness within our community and campaign for freedoms that will allow our people to live their lives on a genuinely equal footing. \nDarwin Pride (NT) Inc\, rebrand to Top End Pride (NT) Inc. \nAt the 2020 Annual General Meeting\, the members of Darwin Pride (NT) Incorporated discussed and agreed to rename and rebrand the organisation to Top End Pride (NT) Incorporated.  The new logo was launched in 2021. \nThe Committee chose this design for the following reasons: \n*The first notable piece of the art work is the outline of the Northern Territory as it identifies us being from this great land. \n*The colours of Pride are diverse and we decided to include such colours which also represent our spectacular sunsets seen here in the Northern Territory. \n*As the Brolga can often be seen in the stunning parks of Northern Territory\, we decided to have this great crane as a feature of our logo. \n
