Poppin Out Returns Bigger and Bolder For 2026

Annual Adelaide Pride block party Poppin Out is back bigger and better than ever in 2026.

Kicking off straight after the Adelaide Pride March, the event takes over Synagogue Place on Saturday 7 November.

The glitzy street party runs from 5pm to 11pm with back-to-back drag shows, DJs and Pride celebrations, with the party continuing inside Mary's Poppin until late.

This year, a whopping 32 performers from across the nation are performing, including Alison Xpress, Kween Kong, Coco Jumbo, Glitzy Von Jagger, Popchops, Champagne, Miss Jackson, Bebe Babow and more.

"Poppin Out was created to give Adelaide's queer community a celebration that feels entirely its own," explains Mary's Poppin Owner and Founder Stephen Craddock.

"Poppin Out is Mary's turned all the way up. We take everything people love about the club, the drag, the music, the freedom and the community, and spill it out onto the street. Seeing Synagogue Place packed with people celebrating exactly who they are is incredibly special, and this year's lineup gives people every reason to get there early and stay right through."

Mary's Poppin Club Manager Lily Jaksic added, "The scale and atmosphere of Poppin Out made it unlike any other night on the venue’s calendar.  There's a moment when the street fills, the lights come on, and the first performance hits that you realise just how big Poppin Out has become. It only happens once a year, and there is nothing else quite like it. If you have ever wanted to see Mary's at its most spectacular, this is the night, and it is absolutely not one to leave until the last minute."

Mary's Diva Kane Enable said, "The event's energy begins with the Pride March and keeps building long after the street party starts. You arrive with the whole city buzzing from Pride, then suddenly Synagogue Place is a sea of people, music and drag. The looks are bigger, the performances are wilder and the crowd gives everything back. Poppin Out is our chance to be loud, take up space and put on the kind of show people talk about all year."

Presale tickets start from $25 and include access to Mary's Poppin for the rest of the night. With one enormous lineup, one packed street and one chance to experience it all, Poppin Out is set to be one of Adelaide’s most unmissable Pride celebrations of 2026. 

Poppin Out 2025 takes place in Synagogue Place and Mary’s Poppin on Saturday 7 November. Tickets are on sale now at humanitix.com.
