🌈 Why Your Voice Matters

At Castlemaine Pride, everything we do is shaped by you. Your experiences, your hopes, and your ideas help us build a Pride that truly reflects our community.

Your feedback helps us:

💜 Understand what’s working (and what’s not)
💜 Create safer, more welcoming, more inclusive spaces
💜 Celebrate the rich diversity of queer lives across our region
💜 Ensure we’re lifting up voices that are too often overlooked

In a world where LGBTQIASB+ voices have too often been dismissed or silenced, sharing your thoughts is a powerful act. It helps us grow, evolve, and celebrate in ways that honour everyone in our community.

✨ Whether it’s a tiny detail or a big dream – we want to hear it.

Share your thoughts HERE!

Thank you for helping shape a Pride that’s safe, visible, vibrant – and proudly yours. 💛

💖 New to Castlemaine Pride?

Castlemaine Pride is a volunteer-run committee dedicated to creating inclusive, affirming events and opportunities for LGBTQIASB+ people across our region. We build community year-round through gatherings, collaborations, advocacy, and joyful queer celebration.

Our committee is made up of locals from all walks of life – artists, organisers, activists, carers, creatives, and dreamers – united by a shared belief in the power of community and the beauty of diversity.

If the Pride Picnic lit a spark in you, or if you’re looking for a meaningful way to connect and contribute, we’d love to welcome you.

✨ Express your interest in joining the Castlemaine Pride Organising Committee HERE!

We’re also gearing up for our next iconic event – Queer Cakes & Butch Bakes is just around the corner! If you’d like to help out on the day or be involved in future events, we’d love to have you on board.
