Lorne Festival of Performing Arts 2016
Three days of comedy, music and theatre on the Surf Coast.
Overview
Want to get away from the city? Then head along down the Great Ocean Road for three straight days of theatre, music, comedy and cabaret. Returning to the picturesque surf coast locale for its sixth incarnation, the Lorne Performing Arts Festival will once again set the whole town abuzz.
This year's festivities kick off on Friday night with a sold out opening gala – the perfect way to launch a jam-packed program boasting talent from near and far. Tom Gleeson and Denise Scott headline the comedic contingent, along with comic music acts The Suitcase Royale Band and Hooting & Howling.
But the rest of the music lineup is no laughing matter, with Sydney heavyweights All Our Exes Live in Texas featured alongside Rowena Wise, Miles & Simone and Mojo Juju. In between ticketed shows, you can also pay a visit to the festival hub, where you'll find free entertainment throughout the weekend.
