Queer Music Highlights and Events of 2024

The year 2024 has seen a significant rise in visibility and celebration of queer music and artists, highlighted by collaborations like Charli XCX and Troye Sivan's remix of 'Talk Talk'. As anti-LGBTQ2S+ sentiment increases, queer music serves as both a refuge and a rallying point for the community. The evolution of LGBTQ+ representation in popular culture reflects broader societal changes, with notable milestones achieved in music since the late '90s. Also, Luca Guadagnino's film 'Queer' explores complex themes of desire and friendship within the queer experience. Meanwhile, events like Popchops' warehouse rave in Melbourne provide vibrant spaces for queer expression and celebration. As 2025 approaches, the importance of these cultural contributions remains vital.
