About

Kate Wickett has lived around the world. But Sydney, her long-time home, is her true love. Wanting to showcase the beauty of the city and the diversity of its people on a global scale, Kate was an instrumental part of the bid team that secured Sydney as the host of the southern hemisphere’s first-ever WorldPride. Now, after over 20 years spent advocating for LGBTQIA+ communities, Kate is the CEO of Sydney WorldPride: responsible for pulling together this historic celebration for the harbour city. The 17-day festival features hundreds of events — ensuring that each and every attendee’s tastes will be catered for.
