Come out for FreshOut!

Canberra's largest LGBTIQA+ event for the whole community.

This year we are thrilled to be partnering with Enlighten Festival, to bring you our biggest, boldest and most exciting event yet. Meridian and SpringOUT present a fresh new vision for Fair Day, the most anticipated event on the Canberra queer calendar since 1999. We have a fresh new name and a gorgeous new venue.  

FreshOut is a one-day, outdoor event on Saturday 11th March at Glebe Park, featuring wonderful local and visiting performing artists, market stalls representing our diverse community organisations and local businesses, plus food and refreshments from your favourite local vendors and restaurants.  

So, tell all your friends and favourite people - Come out for FreshOut!

Celebrating and embracing Community and Pride.
