District Coordinator
Rainbow Precinct is on Gadigal Land of the Eora Nation and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. We acknowledge the Brotherboys, Sistergirls and all LGBTQIA+ Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Spilling across Darlinghurst and Surry Hills, Rainbow Precinct welcomes and accepts all. From hidden rooftop bars and drag queen entertainment to the district’s lively clubs, street fashion, delicious restaurants and iconic art. Glam and grunge sit side by side. Glitter and good times are guaranteed.
