Float atop the Progress Flag and enjoy an uninterrupted 360-degree view above the Jamison Valley, strut the runway of the Scenic Skyway with a Drag Queen, ride the world’s steepest railway with a Drag King, and more.

Scenic World Managing Director, Anthea Hammon, says Scenic World is thrilled to host a flag as part of Sydney WorldPride’s Rainbow City project.

“Showcasing the Progress Rainbow in a regional centre like the Blue Mountains is a privilege - visitors during Sydney WorldPride can experience more of our beautiful country without leaving the celebrations, and our local LGBTQIA+ community can feel part of the bigger celebrations,” said Anthea.

Celebrate like nowhere else on earth at Scenic World from 10 February until 5 March:

• Scenic World is hosting one of the 45 rainbows from Sydney WorldPride’s Rainbow City project, which will be live during the festival. In a world-first spectacle, visitors to the Blue Mountains will see the Scenic Skyway wrapped in the Progress Flag.
• Experience the world’s only rooftop cable car adventure adorned with the Progress Flag on the Beyond Skyway Pride Ride. Beyond Skyway is a world-first, premium experience, which allows up to four guests to enjoy twilight views 270m above the rainforest canopy.
• On 18-19 February enjoy performances from local Drag Queens and Kings as they ride the world's steepest train with a Drag King, walk the Progress Skyway runway and roam the rainforest, have your face painted with a rainbow, and more family-fun activities.
