ABOUT THE EVENT

Celebrate Wear It Purple Day through Diving Australia and our State partner, with a free LGBTQ+ Come & Try diving session.

In celebration of Wear It Purple Day, we're inviting LGBTQ+ participants and their allies to make a splash at our free, fun, and inclusive springboard diving sessions!

Held across QLD, VIC and Tas, these sessions are a safe and supportive space to try something new, meet new people, and celebrate the power of pride, visibility, and community. No experience is needed—just bring your energy and a sense of adventure!

How it works

  • Limited spots to keep things safe and manageable
  • Supervised board use with one-at-a-time jumps
  •  Clear progression—start low, build up if appropriate

Please note:  

  • Participants must be confident swimmers in deep water
  • Please wear appropriate swimwear/clothing
  • Our office correspondence is during business hours, Monday to Friday.

 

Let’s honour Wear It Purple Day by diving into something empowering, exciting, and proudly inclusive.

Spots are limited – register now and take the plunge! 🏳️‍🌈💜💦
