Festival of Steve 2014
A festival for Melbourne's most dapper gentlemen.
Overview
It may be a man's world, but these days that man has to be pretty dapper. Channelling Don Draper, the Festival of Steve is back for its second year, to help gentlemen be, well, just that: gentlemen. Held at The Kelvin Club, a gentlemen's club that has loosened the rules a little to allow women and non-members join the fun, the event is a chance for men to learn things about style, fashion, food, drink, sport and even comedy.
The day-long, free festival will showcase music from ARIA nominated Jason Walker, as well as keynote speakers discussing Melbourne's fashion scene, including Melbournalia's Dale Campisi (How to Shop), Carl Nave (How To Choose a Suit) and V&J Menswear (Styling and Grooming Through The Ages). Presentations will see The Tailored talk watches with Wristwatch Appreciation 101, while Melbourne City Rooftop Honey will talk bees.
Fun will be had by all with billiards classes, poker lessons, cocktail appreciation sessions and lessons on cycling products and technologies from Cycles Galleria. A curated offering of titles from Melbourne's independent bookshops Hill of Content, Classic Comics, and The Little Bookroom will also be available for purchase.
Whatever the pace, whatever the interest, the Festival of Steve has you covered (even if your name isn't Steve).
