Hilton and Minus18 Unite for a More Inclusive Future

For many young people, their school formal is a once-in-a-lifetime event - a night that they will always remember. But for too many queer youth, this experience is out of reach.

We're committed to making a difference. By partnering with Minus18, we're working to create not only a more inclusive school formal experience for all young people across Australia, but also more inclusive stays for all of our guests.
