QUEEROBODALLA AIMS to CREATE SAFE, VISIBLE AND CONNECTED SPACES FOR LGBTQIA+ PEOPLE LIVING IN THE EUROBODALLA SHIRE
About Queerobodalla
Queerobodalla is a grassroots, community-led collective of LGBTQIA+ people living across the Eurobodalla Shire, Yuin Country. Founded in 2024 by Hannah Matysek and Alice Ansara, Queerobodalla was established to build stronger connections, increase visibility, and celebrate queer life on the South Coast.
At its heart, Queerobodalla exists to create safe, visible, and connected spaces for LGBTQIA+ people—fostering community, creativity, and a deep sense of belonging across the region.
In its first year, Queerobodalla delivered a month-long Pride festival in June 2024, featuring a diverse program of events including live music, literary gatherings, film screenings in collaboration with Queer Screen, Rainbow Yoga, and a Pride launch event at Kyla Park Hall that brought together over 300 community members. The festival also included collaborations with Bega Valley’s Deep in Drag and other local creatives, highlighting the strength and diversity of queer culture in regional NSW.
Looking ahead, Queerobodalla returns in 2026 with another month-long Pride festival. The program will include Pride in the Park, a literary panel, film screenings, Rainbow Yoga, sports and nature-based events, and more—continuing to grow opportunities for connection, expression, and celebration across the Eurobodalla.
