FESTIVAL 2018

-

There really will be something for everyone in Broadbeach — all day and every night — during Festival 2018.

The beachside precinct, one of two major Festival 2018 hubs, will host free world and Australian premieres and commission­ed works covering everything from dance to circus, theatre, live music, installati­ons and public art displays, discussion­s and workshops.

Presented by The Star Gold Coast, the events will see Surf Parade closed to traffic as it’s book ended by two massive stages — a dedicated Queensland Music Stage featuring shows by everyone from Amy Shark to Troy Cassar-Daley, and a Roundabout Stage for adrenaline-fuelled circus and dance works.

From a grand inflatable maze to family shows and works created by Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and First Nations’ artists and communitie­s, Kurrawa Park will become a beachfront playground for young and old as it’s transforme­d into the heart of art during Festival 2018.

Bleach* Festival will also present stellar events on the beach at Chelsea Ave including Water Cooler Games and The Night Watch and Broadbeach Mall will burst to life with roving entertaine­rs.

While Festival 2018 events are free, Dami Im and her full band will perform a highly anticipate­d ticketed show in The Star Theatre on April 5.
