Sydney LGBTQ Mardi Gras Opening 2004

These #photographs are from the Sydney LGBTQ Mardi Gras Opening Event in 2004.

This was a lovely event on a balmy Sydney evening at Hyde Park so it was easy to get to and there was a good number of people in attendance.

The theme, "Metamorphosis", seemed to leave people scratching their heads but the disco lights and fabulous music and comedy made up for the lack of coherence in the branding.

From a History point of view, these photographs include our first ever images of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Sadly we're aware that some have passed to become Nuns of the Above!

The Gallery, Above and Below, contains a selection of colour edited images and curated camera proofs for narrative context and your viewing pleasure.


Above and Below: Because we didn't know where to put it here is an added bonus gallery for those who like historical photographs!


Keep Smiling and Thank you for your Visit! Please Buy us a Coffee to Support our Community Work or Contact Us to Arrange to purchase a Print Sized Image or a signed limited edition print.

Bad Romance Parody (in the Age of Tech)

The song flips Gaga's iconic drama into a playful warning about modern deception — love-bombing, bots, paid actors, and relationships that feel... scripted. It's commentary on spotting the red flags in the age of tech.
