Adelaide’s Pride March is set for four more years thanks to a major $80,000 state government funding boost—$20,000 annually—to keep the iconic event alive and thriving. This support comes at a critical time amid rising hate crimes against gay men and protests over LGBTQIA+ inclusion in schools. The funding isn’t just money—it’s a bold statement that diversity and inclusion matter deeply to South Australia. With roots stretching back 23 years and tied to the city’s first Pride parade 51 years ago, the march continues to unite the community. The announcement at the Pride Gala was met with pride from Human Services Minister Katrine Hildyard, who affirmed the government’s unwavering support for the LGBTQIA+ community, especially as global discrimination persists. The gala also honored trailblazers and organizations, while state parliament recently passed a motion condemning violent attacks on gay men and calling for federal action on dating apps linked to hate crimes. For the volunteer-run Pride Adelaide, this multi-year commitment brings much-needed stability, enabling them to plan boldly and keep championing equality and belonging for all.
