Celebrating identity through Qtopia’s Pride Fest

For CEO Greg Fisher, Qtopia Sydney – the world’s largest centre for queer history and culture – is full of magic.  

He’s not alone in his thinking: a gay couple from Singapore – a country where LGBTQ+ discrimination is still rife – chose Qtopia as the setting for their engagement; a young Catholic school student felt so inspired that she came out as a lesbian to her teacher during a class excursion. 

“What we're trying to do at Qtopia is provide that safe space for people to be able to come in and explore their identity,” Fisher told The Jewish Independent.

As someone who is both Jewish and gay, Fisher has a deep understanding of the importance of identity and community. He regards being Qtopia's CEO as “the gift of a lifetime”.
