Jake Shears, Courtney Act & More Announced On Syd Mardi Gras Party Line-up

The 2019 Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras is only a few weeks away and today they've shared even more of the acts joining this year's Mardi Gras Party line-up. 

The Scissor Sisters' Jake Shears will headline the event, ahead of his appearance on Kylie Minogue's upcoming Aus tour. 

Shears will be joined by the likes of Courtney Act (who last week competed in Eurovision - Australia Decides), Paul Capsis, HANDSOME and House Of Slé (with special guest Leiomy), who join previously announced acts PNAU and Kim Petras. 

This year's party will take place across three venues, the Royal Hall Of Industries, Hordern Pavilion and Max Watt's, with each to take on their own distinct theme.

“As the LGBTQI community continues to evolve into many wonderfully diverse groups of people, the time is right to create a much more diverse queer entertainment program across the entire Mardi Gras Party that represents and appeals to everyone," says Mardi Gras CEO Terese Casu.

“With the continuing explosion of international and national queer performers and DJs it is time to feature these amazing artists throughout the Mardi Gras party. With over 12,000 party-goers and any one space only holding up to 5,000 people it also makes perfect sense to have live performances in all three spaces."
