Get ready for an unforgettable night out in the heart of the Sydney’s LGBTQ+ scene, led by the fabulous drag queen, Kiama Blowhole.

Embark on a 3-hour nightlife tour exploring the most famous gay bars in the area, perfect for solo guests, couples, groups of friends and locals of all ages seeking something fun and unique. Your glamorous host, Kiama Blowhole, will host you through the entire night, visiting Sydney’s top-rated LGBTQ+ friendly establishments.

Your journey begins at Taylor Square, where your host will give you a run-down on the evening. Over the course of the night, you’ll visit 3 iconic Oxford Street venues, finishing at a bar with live music and drag queen performances. There’s no pressure to drink though – we promise a fabulous time regardless! Drinks are not included, but Kiama may be able to sort you out a discount or two at some of the bars.

As you explore Oxford Street, Kiama Blowhole will regale you with entertaining stories, covering all the main stories of Sydney’s heart of all things LGBTQ+, including some of the area’s sordid history and how Mardi Gras first started way back in 1978. You’ll also get a chance to visit some of Oxford Street’s famous retail stores, including House of Priscilla, the Tool Shed and/or High Heels.

After the glamour-filled evening, we’ll provide you with a map linking to all the fabulous places visited throughout the night, along with some extra spots to check out. This is your golden ticket to the most unforgettable night out in Sydney!
