Tomorrow’s the day, folks. The results of the marriage equality postal survey will be released at 10am (AEST). We’re hoping (and polls are suggesting) that the result will be a resounding Yes, but whatever happens you can bet the LGBTIQ+ community and supporters will be banding together and partying through it.

We’ve done our best to collate a list of some of the biggest events happening in capital cities around the country tomorrow. Whether you’re looking for a place to hang out and watch the result be announced, or just want a big gay afterparty to kick on to, we’ve got you covered.

If we haven’t listed something close to you, the Yes campaign have a list of events on their site here. And if you think we’ve missed something big, you can tweet at me here and we’ll add it to the post.

Whatever happens tomorrow, have fun, stay safe, and look after each other. Here’s where the party will be at:

Sydney

Official Sydney Results Announcement Picnic at Prince Alfred Park (9am til 1pm)

Australian Marriage Equality are hosting a big picnic and community gathering at Prince Alfred Park in Sydney. They’ll be screening the result live at 10am, there’ll be live performances from John Paul Young, Alfie Arcuri, Jordan Raskopoulos and DJ Dan Murphy, and a bunch of awesome speakers (Magda Szubanski, Ian Thorpe, Alex Greenwich, Kerryn Phelps, Lord Mayor Clover Moore, Christine Forster, Tiernan Brady, and Janine Middleton). If you’re free during the day and can get to Sydney CBD, come on down to watch the result with thousands of others.

Stonewall YES Party (8.30am til late)

Sydney’s iconic gay bar Stonewall will open at 8.30am tomorrow, and they’ll be playing the result announcement live on their screens, and then partying all day. A good one to clear your schedule for.

It’s A YES From Us Party at ARQ (9pm til late)

This one’s just down the road from Stonewall, so why not do both?

Result Night Street Festival for Marriage Equality at Taylor Square (6pm til 11pm)

Also just down the road from Stonewall and ARQ, there’ll be a big rally at Taylor Square from 6pm featuring speeches, music and performances, and lots of dancing in the street. It’s free, and will likely take over a good chunk of Oxford Street as the night goes on. Just remember the street itself is an alcohol-free zone — best to just duck into one of the many proximate gay bars if you wanna get lit. By virtue of being on the street, this one is also all ages.

Canned Fruit – YESSS Party! at Secret Garden Bar (7pm til 11pm)

One for the Inner West — Secret Garden Bar in Enmore is having a party with free entry, drag shows, and lots of glitter.

The Lansdowne YASS Party (2pm til midnight)

Free entry, drag shows, and it kicks off at 2pm.

Thousands of people have already RSVP’d to this street party, which will take over Lygon Street and the surrounding area from 5.30pm. There’ll be bands (Karen From Finance, HABITS, Wet Lips, and more), an LGBTIQ+ choir, food and booze.

Closet — Yes Results Party (Free!) at Section 8 (5pm til 11pm)

Perth

Official Perth Results Announcement (6.30am til 8.30am)

Sorry Perth — due to time zones, the result comes out for you at 7am, which means your official event is super early. Still, the Yes campaign is encouraging you to get up early and head down to Northbridge Piazza to watch the result live as a community. Set your alarm! You can do it!

Results Day Champagne Breakfast (6.30am til 10.30pm)

The Court in Perth will be open for an early Champagne Breakfast to view the results, and intend to just keep kicking on through every meal of the day until 10pm. Work is cancelled, go hang out here instead.

Hobart

Marriage Equality Survey Announcement Party (9.30am til 11am)

If you’re in Hobart, head down to the Cascade Hotel from 9.30am to watch the announcement and (if you don’t have to work) get partying.

Equali-tea Party (4pm til 6pm)

Working It Out Inc in North Hobart will be holding a tea party with snacks and a relatively quieter space to chill out, process the result (whatever it is), and hang out with some other LGBTIQ+ people. A good one if you’re not super keen on loud, boozy events.
