Lorne Festival of Performing Arts 2014
Farewell winter in style with a weekend jaunt to the seaside.
Overview
Winter has taken a toll on us the last few months. Long gone are our fond memories of summers spent on the Peninsula and Surf Coast. We can barely remember what a potato cake tastes like at this point. So, to farewell this dreaded season in style what better place to be than at the heart of Victorian sunshine itself? Lorne is holding a big party with musicians, artists and performers aplenty, and you're all invited.
Lorne Festival of Performing Arts is admittedly a lesser known name on the Melbourne festival circuit. Now in its fourth year, this seaside event is characterised by cabaret, comedy, circus, dance and music, and features an eclectic group of local performers. Opening night is kicked off in the legendary Circus Oz Big Top and the acts on show include Finucane & Smith, League of Sideshow Superstars, Mighty Duke & The Lords, Trash Test Dummies, Kate McLennan & Wes Snelling, and the Flying Fruit Fly Circus.
With a wealth of street performers and seaside party vibes, this will no doubt be a satisfying way to ease into the hectic festival season.
