Overview
Make your way down the Princes Freeway and immerse yourself in a world of colour and sound at Geelong After Dark. The Gateway City's answer to Melbourne's White Night, this late-night arts festival will run from 6pm to 10pm and feature dozens of innovative art installations, projections, music acts and live performances. Not a bad way to unwind at the end of a busy week.
The festivities will take place in central Geelong across the CBD, including the cultural precinct, Little Malop Street, Moorabool Street and the waterfront. Standouts on the jam-packed program are many and varied, ranging from soundscapes matched with images of the You Yangs to live circus acts in Johnstone Park, and even a storytelling machine that transforms punters' drawings into animations. The city's iconic waterfront carousel will be lit up and spinning, while the National Wool Museum will be hosting a shadow and sound experience based around giant monsters like the Bunyip.
