Transdev’s Sydney teams are standing tall and riding with pride for the 2024 Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Festival.

Transdev Australia and New Zealand CEO Brian Brennan said Transdev always proudly embraced Sydney’s premier LGBTQIA+ celebration.

“The buses, ferries and trams Transdev run obviously play a big part in helping people get around Sydney during this iconic festival,” Mr Brennan said.

“You’ll see our people embracing the Festival vibe with rainbow badges and shoelaces.

“You’ll also see rainbow flags on all our ferries and at some ticketing gates, special Mardi Gras wrapped trams, the rainbow road installation at Chalmers St and Circular Quay and rainbow decorated buses.”

“These are all ways we show our pride in encouraging inclusion and celebrate difference because we know that diversity makes us better.

”As JourneyMakers, our Transdev teams go above and beyond not only to run reliable public transport and serve customers but also to represent and be a part of our local communities.

“Mardi Gras is always a busy time of year with the city shining a little brighter. The Festival is something we always work closely with ALTRAC Light Rail and Transport for NSW every year on.” 

The Festival, themed Our Future, kicks off today 16 February culminating in the highlight Mardi Gras parade on Saturday 2 March 2024.

Transdev is proud of our PRIDE Network, a dedicated platform for our LGBTQI+ employees and allies since 2019. Our ‘Ride with Pride’ campaign, developed by Transdev employees, is also testament of our commitment towards equality and inclusion.

Transdev is committed to provide a diverse, engaged and resilient working environment.
