Adelaide's LGBTQIA history

The Adelaide Queer History Tour detailing a different side to Adelaide's history.

Take our Adelaide Queer History Tour – a one-hour audio tour sharing the stories of the city’s LGBTQIA history. This is not only a tour about Adelaide’s queer history, but how Adelaide shaped Australian queer history.

Along the city walk, you’ll hear tragic stories. However, quirky stories balance the tour so you get a better understanding of good and bad circumstances.

Hear about the death of George Duncan and how politicians like Don Dunstan helped to create inclusive national reform.

As you explore on this Adelaide audio tour, walk part of a Pride March route used in the modern era. Appreciate what has led to current societal norms.

This is a tour to be done at your own pace, in your own time. You can pause the tour wherever necessary, or take extra time at any location.

It can either be done solo, or as a shared experience. Save off the VoiceMap price when buying the tour direct from our website.

Your walk is narrated by local guide/Flamboyance Tours owner Katina, an ally who has worked with Feast Festival and members of the Adelaide queer community.
