On 29 August 2025, ‘Wear It Purple Day’ united LGBTQIA+ youth and allies to shine a glorious light on the thousands of schools, community organisations, universities, and workplaces that are coming together to create a more inclusive future for all Australians.
By wearing purple, Australians demonstrate to rainbow young people that they are celebrated and respected, acknowledging all have the right to be proud of who they are and who they are becoming.
Originally founded by students in response to global stories of teenagers taking their own lives due to bullying and harassment, “Wear it Purple Day” has become an international movement of love and support.
This year’s theme is “Bold Voices, Bright Futures”
