Wear it Purple Day Events

Join the Wear it Purple Colour Run and Rainbow Course! Open to all staff and students, this colourful event is all about fun, learning, and showing support for our LGBTQIA+ community.Run, walk or cheer your way through the Rainbow Course, an interactive space with games and activities designed to spark conversations and raise awareness about LGBTQIA+ inclusion.

This year's WIPD theme is ‘Your Passion, Your Pride’ and celebrates LGBTQIA+ people openly and visibly achieving their dreams in sport, science and more. On this day, UQ Art Museum is celebrating all day with activities on the Art Museum lawn and special activations in the UQ Art Museum. We’ll be hosting talks, artwork displays, creative activities and stalls that celebrate our diverse LGBTQIA+ community. 

This year, for Wear It Purple Day, the UQ Ally Network is organising a morning of talks to showcase some of the excellent research being conducted across UQ examining the health and wellbeing of the LGBTQIA+ community. We invite you to come along and join us in hearing all about this work!
