Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras 2027

Fair Day: 14 February 2027 | Parade: 6 March 2027 | Full program coming soon

Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras returns in 2027, with two of its biggest dates already locked in. Fair Day returns to Victoria Park on Sunday 14 February, followed by the Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday 6 March, with the wider festival program still to be announced.

If you’re planning to travel to Sydney for Mardi Gras, booking accommodation early gives you one less thing to think about once the full program drops. Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park puts you close to the Metro, with on-site dining and easy connections into the city for events happening across the festival.

Getting around Sydney during Mardi Gras

Macquarie Park Metro Station is around a 2 minute walk from the hotel, with the M1 Metro running directly through key city stations including Barangaroo, Martin Place, Gadigal and Central. That makes it easy to move between different parts of Sydney as the Mardi Gras program unfolds.

For the Parade, Gadigal and Central provide useful access into the city and surrounding precincts, while other Mardi Gras events may be held across different venues. We recommend checking the official program and Transport for NSW closer to the dates to plan the best route for each event.

Staying at Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park for Mardi Gras

Start the day with breakfast at Bistro Sydney, head into the city via the Metro, then return to Macquarie Park for dinner or a drink at Bistro Bar. For friends travelling together, room options with two double beds are also available alongside King Rooms, balcony rooms and suites.

With the full 2027 program still to come, booking early also gives you more flexibility once the events, parties and performances you want to attend are announced.
