Midsumma Pride March with Minus18

🌈 QUEER YOUTH TO THE FRONT! 🌈

It’s Melbourne’s biggest Pride festival, and you’re invited to march with Minus18 at Midsumma Pride March 2026!

This is your chance to join the loudest, proudest celebration of LGBTQIA+ community in Melbourne, alongside Minus18, Australia’s champions for LGBTQIA+ youth.

Our youth events are usually just for 12-19 year olds, but Pride March is special: it’s for everyone. That means parents, guardians, family, friends, allies, sports teams, school pride groups, even pets, can all stand proudly with the LGBTQIA+ young people in their lives.

✨ And yep: the first 150 young people (13-18) to arrive will get exclusive early access to Queer Formal Melbourne tickets, and trust us, they always sell out fast.

Registrations are free but essential!
