Originally scheduled to take place in February this year, Big Gay Out 2023 was [postponed](https://gayexpress.co.nz/2023/02/exclusive-aucklands-big-gay-out-postponed/) owing to the massive floods in New Zealand. Now, with mere days to spare, the queer event will house thousands of people at Auckland’s Coyle Park. The festivities will take place on three stages: Main Stage, NYMPHO World (DJ sets) and Vogue Ball (Thirst Trap 2023). https://www.instagram.com/p/CpYnmeJrcVD/ ##### You May Also Like: [TFword Review: FLETCHER’s Debut Album ‘Girl of My Dreams’](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2022/09/23/tfword-review-fletchers-debut-album-girl-of-my-dreams) This year’s Big Gay Out will be headlined by ?tautahi-born pop singer/songwriter Theia, an emerging name on the country’s list of pop artists.
