The Rainbow Fair Day will be the place to be to help close the 2019 Festival.
The largest event of program will see the Queer community come together with our allies for a day of musical performances, comedy, food and artistic creativity.
Government and non-for profit organisations will be on site to provide advice, support and information on a varied selection of topics including family connection, OH&S, health and sexuality.
Key activities will include a PRIDE march through the CBD, children's play area, pet parade, acoustic musicians, bands and Drag performances. We will also have award winning guests.

Geelong Rainbow Inc's purpose is to empower the Queer community through the provision of events, activities, social connection and support.
Following on from our hugely successful 2018 Rainbow festival, we are looking to expand our Festival's closing event, Fair Day, to support the provision of local businesses, entertainers and suppliers.
The day will be an opportunity for all of our community to showcase and celebrate diversity and everything that makes Geelong a great city to live.

While this project is Geelong based its benefits go beyond as coastal and country LGBTIQA+ people and their allies attend this for that sense of community and support.
