Overview

There's never a bad time the Gold Coast's shores; however, from March 31 to April 16, driving down south comes not just with surf, sun and sand, but with an added dose of arts and culture. Don't worry, beachgoers — at Bleach Festival, both often combine into one glorious package.

The annual event returns with a 2017 program that's equal parts outdoor and indoor fun, and spanning theatre, music, art, sport and more. If performance is your kind of thing, then Frank Enstein and Blanc de Blanc are definite drawcards. One reimagines one of the greatest tales ever written, the other combines cabaret, circus, champagne and salacious sights.

Or, enjoy a beachside concert, spy giant illuminated figures on the street, catch a footy-focused play at a football club and watch a man run 42.2 kilometres on a treadmill. Plus, skateboarding displays, '60s-style parties by the waves, an Indigenous art tour and blues on the sand are all also part of the lineup.
