Event Details

Every Wednesday during Vivid Sydney, The Bearded Tit and Queerbourhood celebrates Sydney's legendary queer artists alongside today’s emerging contemporary performers.

Shining a light on Sydney’s queer underground history, these events feature three iconic queer performers from Nana Miss Koori and Frumpus to Cindy Pastel. See them matched with some of Sydney’s most exciting new talent, including Betty Grumble, Kilia Pahulu, and Stelly Gappasauress to name a few. Resident DJ Jonny Seymour shares the decks each week with top selectors such as DJ Kilimi, DJ Ahju and D-Grade.

In the leading up to each evening, catch interviews with the performers and DJs to discover more about each performer’s art, life, and inspirations.

For the last six years, Queerbourhood has brought together the queer community and its allies in evenings of music and performance, giving a platform to aspiring new performers and DJs to develop their practice.

All three events are FREE, in keeping with The Bearded Tit’s aim of making queer live performances accessible to all.

Presented with support from Vivid Sydney and City of Sydney
