The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever 2021

Overview

UPDATE, September 1, 2021: Due to Brisbane's COVID-19 restrictions in July, The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever 2021 was rescheduled, and will now take place on Saturday, September 4. This article has been updated to reflect that change.

In 2013, 300 people danced to Kate Bush's' 'Wuthering Heights' in a field — and in 2021, the idea is back and bigger than ever. Yes, The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever is happening in Brisbane on Saturday, September 4. Yes, everyone should be dressed as Kate Bush, complete with a red dress, red stockings and black belt (men, that means you as well).

On the day, a clowder (that's the collective noun for Kate Bushes, just FYI) will descend upon Milton and copy Bush's swaying, kicky dance in unison just for the pure joy of it. Support for this weird and wonderful outing has been widespread, and Kate Bush fans from around the world have been inspired to create events in their home cities. So get your gear together (dressmakers are usually flooded with orders for the day) and ready yourself to roll and fall in green, out on the wily, windy moors of Frew Park.

If you need an incentive — other than the event itself, of course — it's now 43 years since the song was first released.
