The Experience

Departure Party

Start your journey with a Departure Party, where the gate lounge becomes a hoedown, the drinks^^ are on us, and the vibes are high.

In-flight

Once at cruising altitude, rainbow rodeo comes alive sky-high with DJ beats and line dancing down the aisle. Complimentary drinks^^, snacks, entertainment and dancing are all included in your fare.

Landing Party

After you touch down in Sydney, the party continues at the official Landing Party at The Beresford that’ll keep the vibes going well into the night.

Recovery

And when you’re ready to recover? Join us at the official Pride Flight Recovery Brunch hosted by Ovolo Woolloomooloo—because even the best nights out deserve a stylish touchdown. Tickets to the Recovery Brunch must be booked separately.

The Dress Code

Think cowboy couture meets disco glam: a look that’s confident, fun, and ready to party. Whether you go all out or just add a few standout pieces, make sure your outfit brings the spirit of the rodeo... and the dancefloor.

Coming Soon: Recovery and Stays

Ovolo Woolloomooloo will host the fourth-annual Ovolo x Virgin Australia Pride Flight Recovery Brunch at Bar Woolloomooloo on Saturday 28 February 2026, because even the best nights out deserve a stylish touchdown.

Supporting The Pinnacle Foundation

Virgin Australia is proud to continue its multi-year Gold partnership with The Pinnacle Foundation, Australia’s LGBTQIA+ education charity, in 2026. Pride Flight ticket sales directly contribute to this important cause.

“We are so excited to be continuing our partnership with Virgin Australia for Pride Flight 2026. This partnership directly supports the Virgin Australia scholarship, which will be awarded to a Pinnacle Scholar who is studying from a broad range of fields relevant to aviation and tourism.

This type of support is essential, as it allows us to continue providing our community of young LGBTQIA+ Australians with the much-needed opportunity to realise their full potential through education, mentorship and advocacy."  

Pinnacle Foundation Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Staite
