Kylie Will Perform At Sydney Mardi Gras

The word is out: Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras is thrilled to confirm that Kylie will be performing at the 2012 Mardi Gras Party - Mardigrasland! While it hasn’t been confirmed which songs she will be performing, we can be sure that she will cover her 25 years of hits.

We, along with our strategic partner Destination NSW, could not be more excited to welcome Kylie back to Mardi Gras Party, as she celebrates her 25th anniversary as a music icon with K25 — 25 years of Kylie. We are already thrilled to have her watch the Parade with us, so having her perform live at Mardigrasland is a truly unique gift to our community and to Sydney at large.

This adds to already stellar Party line-up, with singer-songwriter Sam Sparro being another exciting addition. Sparro was recently confirmed to do a special performance at the Party and joins RuPaul, Sneaky Sound System, Chicane and a variety of local and international acts and DJs.

“Being part of Mardi Gras this year is so important to me because I know that so many of my fans make up the amazing community it represents,” said Kylie.


“Performing at the Party is my way of saying thanks for 25 amazing years together. It’s been a really beautiful relationship that has always been filled with overwhelming support and a lot of love.”

Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras alongside its strategic partner Destination NSW, wanted to mark the acclaimed artist’s career milestone, K25, with a personal invitation to be part of the event, widely recognised as the world’s best celebration of LGBTQI pride and diversity and one that draws significant economic benefits to Sydney and NSW at large. Now that she has confirmed that she will perform at Mardigrasland, we are expecting even more people to travel to Sydney for the Parade weekend.
