After the PRIDE Parade, everyone gathered in Victoria Park for the festival, with music playing, booths with items for sale or representing encouraging group, writers, and then there was the beer garden.
The mucians playing that I witnessed were Jeffrey Straker (and band) and the wonderful Kirby Criddle. There were other acts after I left (Kinnie Starr, Boy and Gurl, and Run Romeo Run), but I had a long walk home. In all three years, the lead-off were drag king and queens doing lip-syncing to dance hits.
