The Victorian Pride Centre is the first purpose-built centre for Victoria’s LGBTIQ+ communities. It is a place to pave new directions for the future of LGBTIQ+ communities, while honouring and celebrating our brave – and at times difficult – past. It is home to practical and supportive services and will grow into a destination for visitors from across Australia, and beyond.
The Victorian Pride Centre Ltd. is a not-for-profit organisation structured as a company limited by guarantee, and was registered in October 2016. It has been established with a skills-based board of non-executive directors.
A world where every LGBTIQ+ person has a place where we are welcomed, valued, respected and celebrated.
To connect, support and amplify LGBTIQ+ voices, resources, services and groups so that our communities are cohesive, resilient and thrive.
Pride – We value pride, courage and strength. Together we can create a positive future.
Support – We support each other, inclusive of each other and value our diversity.
Celebration – We celebrate our LGBTIQ+ communities, honouring our history and our cultures.
Belonging – We welcome all to a place of acceptance, belonging, reconciliation and kindness.

This fantastic addition to Fitzroy Street will be a hub of culture, health and support services, as well as a home for the LGBTIQ+ groups and organisations we know and love.”

“The Victorian Pride Centre will bring our community together, to collaborate and build on each other’s strengths while maintaining our individual organisational identities. It will celebrate who we are as proud LGBTIQ+ people and open the doors to the rest of the community to help them understand our unique history and stories as well as our current contribution to Victoria.”
