RAYDIA Festival have announced their brand spanking new, final lineup, including Cascada, Marina Summers, DJs Manuel Coby, Ana Julieta, local drag talent, and many more.
The new LGBTQIA+ music event will be taking over The Domain in Sydney on Saturday, 15 November.
The festival aims to be the largest LGBTQIA+ music event and is both LGBTQIA+ owned and managed. It was founded by Alex Daoust, the former Executive Producer of Sydney WorldPride 2023, who created the Domain Dance Party.
“Australia has been missing a major moment for the LGBTQIA+ community at the start of summer and RAYDIA is here to change that,” said Daoust in a statement. “We’re creating a world-class production party packed with surprises in The Domain – an iconic open-air venue in the heart of Sydney. This is the next evolution of LGBTQIA+ festivals in Australia and everyone is welcome.”

Music producer and German artist Cascada is returning to Australia after a hiatus of more than seven years. She’s headlining the event, performing her well-known works like Everytime We Touch, What Hurts The Most, and Evacuate The Dancefloor.
Cascada is one of the best-selling German artists of all time, with over 30 million albums sold worldwide, two Billboard Dance #1s, and a World Music Award to her name.
“I’m so excited to be returning to Australia after so many years!” said Cascada. “The energy from Aussie crowds has always been incredible, and I can’t wait to perform all the songs that people know and love at RAYDIA. It’s going to be one huge celebration – I’ll see you on the dancefloor!”
Joining her is Filipino drag superstar Marina Summers, who was runner-up from season 1 of Drag Race Philippines. She’s scheduled to perform an eight-minute production.
“I am so happy to be performing at RAYDIA! Sydney always brings the heat, and I can’t wait to give everyone my full production show with Filipino pride on the incredible arena stage,” said Summers.
