Out of more than 150 ‘Big Things’ across Australia, the Big Rainbow is the first landmark to celebrate Australia's regional #LGBTQIA+ community.
The Big Rainbow Project was unveiled by Tinder in 2022. Over 16,000 votes were cast to decide the location of the Big Rainbow for the next 3yrs. #Daylesford was the clear winner.
Daylesford is known as the rainbow capital of regional Victoria and has been an integral part of the region's LGBTQIA+ history for over fifty years.

#inequity of available housing . Only half of Daylesford/Hepburn is occupied by permanent residents. The rest is short term airbnb and tourist rentals. Including real estate agents posing as private owners.
Rental stress for locals is high. Including reluctance by a local caravan park to allow long term low income stayers.
Greed rules when
#AirBnB stalks into town.
#auspol Australia has taken a 'light touch' with Airbnb. Could stronger regulations ease the housing crisis?
Australia is very ‘light touch’ when it comes to regulating Airbnb. The current housing crisis demands a new approach, informed by overseas success stories.
