Darebin's new rainbow footpath
Published on 28 September 2026
Council is installing a rainbow footpath in Preston as a symbol of celebration, inclusion and support of the LGBTIQA+ community.
The footpath represents our commitment to strengthening LGBTIQA+ visibility, voice and representation.
The installation of the rainbow footpath follows the launch of Darebin’s LGBTIQA+ Action Plan in May, and takes cues from the Plan’s goals, strategies and initiatives.
