The ultimate post-parade recovery party for Sydney Mardi Gras.
What began with a stereo and a couple of milk crates in a quiet Darlinghurst laneway has evolved into one of the highlights of the Mardi Gras program, attracting some top-drawer DJs for the ultimate post-parade recovery party. All good things must come to an end – and there’s no ending quite like Laneway.
- Stay close to the venue in Surry Hills. Feel like a local in your own apartment at the Best Western Plus Hotel Stellar, offering full suite amenities and just steps from the bustling and vibrant gay scene.
The Party
