Overview

When a Brisbane icon gets a revamp, it's always worth stopping by to see the results. Since late 2021, that's been the case with Woolloongabba's now 134-year-old Princess Theatre. And if you haven't yet found the right reason to make a visit, here's an ace one: the new Hot Dreams Festival.

Taking over the venue from 2pm on Saturday, June 11, this music fest hails from the crew behind Nine Lives, including West End record store faves Jet Black Cat Music. But, it's hitting up The Princess rather than The Tivoli. And, it's also doing so in winter — because 2022's inaugural event wants you to ditch your coats, shimmy on over to the dance floor and heat things up by enjoying live tunes.

On the bill: Lucy Dacus, Cate Le Bon and Andy Shauf, all heading to Brisbane from the US and Canada, plus Aussies Glass Beams, Pinch Points, Girl And Girl and Scraps. And, out in the courtyard, Moktar, Andras, Shandy and Scalymoth will be doing their thing on the decks, and taking the party into the evening.
