Meet the Disruptors. 🖤🩷

This Pride Month, we're joining forces with Observer to celebrate the enduring legacy of our founder, Michael Glynn and the LGBTQIA+ trailblazers carrying that spirit forward.

The Glynn Legacy brings together two pioneering LGBTQIA+ disruptors shaping the future of our community:

✦ Business Disruptor: Anna Sheppard - social entrepreneur, impact producer, and Founder & CEO of the multi award-winning Bambuddha Group.
✦ Media Disruptor: Farz Edraki – Iranian-Australian writer, editor and host of SBS podcast Q***r Renegades.

Hosted by author and journalist Patrick Lenton from Star Observer
Join us on 28 June for an iconic evening rounding out Pride Month. An honest conversation, big ideas, and plenty of networking.

Oxford Street is coming back to life!

Today, the Australian Financial Review highlighted the renewed optimism around Oxford Street’s future, including comments from PBA President Jarrod Lomas on what this precinct means to our community.

For the PBA, Oxford Street has always been both a place of business and a cultural home. It is venues, shops and nightlife, as well as community, history, creativity and connection for generations of LGBTQIA+ people, organisations, workers, visitors and allies.

After years of disruption, delays and uncertainty, there is now a real opportunity to support its next chapter. That means backing local businesses, filling venues, showing up for events, investing in the rainbow economy, and making sure Oxford Street’s future reflects the community that made it iconic in the first place.

We are cautiously optimistic, and we are ready to help build what comes next.

This Pride Month, make a plan to visit Oxford Street, support LGBTQIA+ businesses and venues, and be part of its revival.

What do you think Oxford Street needs to thrive?
