Caxton Street Festival 2015

Overview

What do you get when a celebration of Brisbane's inner west turns into a 21st birthday shindig? That'd be this year's Caxton Street Festival. The Paddington street party has come of age, and it's sharing its presents with the masses. Think food, music and a good time all round.

On the culinary side of things, the festival has come a long way since it also included the words "seafood" and "wine" in its name, as those with long memories might recall. There's still plenty of fresh ocean bounty to feast on, as well as vino to wash it down with; however, street eats and pop-up bars will also showcase Caxton Street's numerous purveyors of food and beverages.

When it comes to tunes, there's something for everyone, whether roots and reggae, killer rock, buzzsaw guitar riffs or upbeat indie pop is your thing. The Beautiful Girls, Phil Jamieson, DZ Deathrays, Thelma Plum, Hey Geronimo and more will blast their sounds from multiple stages. Prepare to be dancing in the street, Bowie and Jagger style.
