Australia’s annual Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras celebrations will still kick off this February, even without the iconic party going ahead. With the right music and visuals, venues can draw the crowd in and be part of the colour, energy and pride of the festival.
For Sydney venues and those hosting Mardi Gras events nationwide, Nightlife offers a range of curated playlists and Digital Signage designed to create an atmosphere that keeps guests celebrating longer. From Kylie Minogue to Beyoncé, these lists span upbeat anthems and crowd favourites to keep the dance floor full.
All playlists and visuals are available via the Manage My Nightlife phone and web app, where you can find, schedule and update them in real time.
Managing Mardi Gras music
Nightlife’s Content team creates dedicated playlists for key calendar moments such as Mardi Gras, Valentine’s Day and Pride Month. Each list blends classic hits with current favourites, giving venues a seamless, on-brand soundtrack.
Through the Manage My Nightlife app, staff can queue playlists, line up individual tracks to match the mood, and add guest requests to the mix.
Learn how to queue or schedule PRIDE PARTY ANTHEMS in the DJ sets category on Manage My Nightlife. Other suggested lists include MIX FUN, PARTY HITS and REMIXES.

Advertise your Mardi Gras event
Nightlife’s digital signage feature can be used to share information during events or promote celebrations in advance. A complete Digital Signage library is available on the Manage My Nightlife web app.
Businesses can schedule these, or even their own custom slides, to show at certain times of the day, for a certain amount of time, on certain screens.
