MELT Festival 2016
Brisbane's celebration of queer arts and culture is back for its sophomore year.
Overview
In 2015, Brisbane Powerhouse ushered a new festival onto Brisbane's events calendar. MELT showered the city with the best in queer arts and culture, and became Queensland's rival to the Sydney's Mardi Gras and Melbourne's Midsumma in the process.
Of course it received a rather warm welcome, so it's not surprising that it's back this year with another bustling lineup of shows and performances to flock to. Brimming with variety, the 2016 program includes a missing appendage, a southern songstress, a queen of the Cross and a portrait prize, plus much, much more.
