Overview

Take an after-dark stroll along Gertrude Street in Fitzroy and you'll find your whole world lit up in lights. Returning to the northside thoroughfare from July 15 to 24, the Gertrude Street Projection Festival will once again see a stretch along the 86 tram route transformed into a dazzling outdoor art gallery.

Now in its ninth year, GSPF has well and truly hit its stride, lighting up everything from shopfronts to footpaths to the Atherton Gardens. In total, this year's program features 38 different projections from new and established artists, on display from 6pm until midnight.

Once you've wandered up and down the block a few times, you can also pay a visit to the festival hub – that is, The Catfish – where you'll find everything from immersive sound installations to rockin' late night dance parties.
