Exciting events and experiences happening this month in Darlinghurst.
Black Cherry 2026
Event Information
<p><strong>A trans-diverse celebration of redemption, transformation, and rebirth.</strong></p><p><strong>Black Cherry</strong> is a trans-diverse event rooted in themes of redemption and transformation. It’s about revisiting a time when taking risks meant growth, and youth offered both safety and freedom.</p><p>For many trans people, years spent assimilating meant losing parts of ourselves. Through Black Cherry, we can get that time back. Cocooning for survival often meant missing chances to explore, make mistakes, and learn without heavy consequence.</p><p>Kianna's inspiration comes from the milestones missed — proms, graduations, celebrations, and experiences they never had as their true self.</p><p><strong>Black Cherry</strong> is about reclaiming those moments and creating space to live them now — fully, freely, and authentically.</p><p><strong><em>Curated by Mother Kianna Louboutin Oricci</em></strong></p>

Glitter Club 2026
Event Information
<p><strong>Up close. Unfiltered. Unforgettable.</strong></p><p>Step into <strong>Glitter Club</strong>, the ultimate premium viewing experience for the <strong>2026 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade.</strong> Perfectly positioned in the heart of <strong>Taylor Square</strong>, this is where the magic happens — right at street level, right in the heart of the action. Here, you don’t just watch the Parade — you feel it.</p><p>Experience the <strong>bass, cheers, and shimmer of the floats</strong> as they roll by just metres from your seat. With <strong>exclusive vantage points from a raised deck, dedicated bars, curated food, and private toilets,</strong> your night is designed for comfort, effortless celebration, and total immersion.</p><p>Headlining this year's exclusive and only premium viewing point are two absolute powerhouses at the helm. <strong>DJ Dan Murphy</strong> and <strong>Estée Louder</strong> (Jess Hill). Fresh off the explosive success of Club Broadway and countless sold-out I Remember House parties, DJ Dan Murphy is ready to light up the Parade route with a high-voltage headline set that’ll have Taylor Square shaking. Estée Louder - the creative mind behind Ultra Violet, one of the fastest-selling events of the 2026 Festival, will bring her fierce, femme-led sound that has defined some of Sydney’s boldest performance spaces, bringing her unmistakable flavour straight to Glitter Club.</p><p>Watch this space for even more <strong>special guest announcements and live entertainment lineups,</strong> building a <strong>vibrant five-hour program</strong> to keep the energy high from the first beat to the final float.</p><p><strong>Glitter Club isn’t just a place to watch</strong> — it’s where Mardi Gras comes alive.
