Planet Perth: Connections Nightclub

In 1975, when homosexuality was still criminalised in Perth, Connections opened its doors as a gay nightclub. 

Since then, it’s played a central role in the growth of Perth’s queer community.

Tim Brown has seen most of this history unfold, first as a punter in the 80s then as owner and caretaker. As the venue approaches its 50th anniversary, Jeff Bullen sits down with Tim for a very special interview about the history of a little club with a big soul. 

Join Jeff Bullen for a deep dive into the weird, wacky and unexplained history of our eccentric city on Planet Perth.

From cults, to abandoned theme parks and tank rampages across the CBD, Planet Perth is your guide to the events, personalities and bygone icons that have shaped one of the most isolated cities in the world.
