مهرجان Feast 2026

Feast Festival is Adelaide's annual LGBTQ+ arts and culture celebration — a three-week festival held each November that is one of the most significant queer cultural events in Australia. Founded in 1997, Feast encompasses theatre, visual arts, film, music, cabaret, comedy, drag, and community events across dozens of venues throughout the city, combining the arts festival tradition that Adelaide has perfected over decades with the celebratory energy of a Pride event.

The festival's centrepiece is the Adelaide Pride March, drawing approximately 20,000 participants and spectators through the city streets. But the Pride March is only one element of a programme that spans weeks and reaches across the full breadth of LGBTQ+ cultural expression. Feast has hosted some of Australia's most celebrated queer artists and performers alongside international visitors; the quality of programming reflects Adelaide's identity as a city that takes arts festivals seriously.

South Australia's distinction as the first Australian state to decriminalise homosexuality (in 1975) gives Feast a historical depth that the festival wears lightly but carries with meaning. The LGBTQ+ community that gathers in Adelaide each November is one that has been building openly and legally for fifty years, and the confidence and creativity of that community is visible throughout the festival. For LGBTQ+ visitors to Australia who want to experience queer culture at a high artistic level, in an affordable and welcoming city, Feast Festival is an unmissable event.
