Les Tambours De Feu — Deabru Beltzak
Melbourne's streets will be set on fire.
Overview
This year's Melbourne Festival will start with a bang, thanks to Basque street theatre company Deabru Beltzak. For two decades, the company has performed the traditional Correfoc (or, fire run) in cities around the world. Now, for three nights only, they're bringing their pyrotechnic display to Federation Square. Pounding drums, elaborate costumes and breathtaking fireworks combine in this after-dark parade, beginning at the corner of Flinders and Swanston Streets before snaking its way through the city. Don't stand too close though — you don't want to get burnt.
