Overview
Sydney has Mardi Gras, Melbourne has Midsumma, and now Brisbane finally has its own celebration of queer arts and culture to add a bit of dazzle to the warmer months. Come February 5, the Brisbane Powerhouse will stage the first-ever MELT festival, focusing on LGBTIQ performance, art, music and film.
After kicking off with what promises to be a huge — and free — opening night party, MELT will combine comedy, cabaret, circus and more over 11 days of fun. It may be the event’s inaugural year, but there are plenty of things to see — starting with our top picks.
