Queer Joy: Stories of delight, defiance and triumph by beloved LGBTIQA+ Comedians, Creatives & Babes.

Do you feel like a feel-good night of unbridled joy that celebrates the lives of LGBTIQA+ Victorians? Of course you do!

Queer Joy is a regular show hosted by the Dear Nelly Podcast which aims to provide space for our community to sit together in happiness. As LGBTIQA+ people we know struggle, but we must also embrace our right to love, happiness and joy. Fresh off back-to-back sold out seasons come and enjoy this story-telling night in the intimate surrounds of Grouse Bar (Room 7).

Hosted by beloved comedian and podcaster Nelly Thomas every Saturday during Fringe, Queer Joy will feature a range of story-tellers who will entertain and delight. Previous story-tellers have included Reuben Kaye, Rhys Nicholson, Geraldine Hickey, Scott Brennan, Ro Allen, Yves Rees, Denise McGuinness, T-Rex (President Dykes on Bikes Melbourne), Tina Del Twist and many more. Don't miss it.

All LGBTIQA+ folks and allies welcome. Together we thrive.
