Total Bowie
A weekend-long celebration of all things David Bowie.
Overview
Throw on your tattered old Union Jack coat and get down to Federation Square. Hosted by the diamond dogs at ACMI, Total Bowie is a weekend-long festival inspired by the music and style of the genre-defying Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, and the latest event in Melbourne's ongoing Bowie obsession. Expect talks, performances and Labyrinth back on the big screen. And make sure you come in costume, because there will be prizes for best dressed.
Musical guests on the Total Bowie program include rock cabaret performer Geraldine Quinn, DJ Mz Rizk, and Bowie inspired ukulele trio The Thin White Ukes. In between performances you can catch talks from the likes of pop-culture journalist Mel Campbell and ACMI curator Fiona Trigg, or get your face painted like Ziggy Stardust. And if you haven't already, you'll want to spend a good few hours in the David Bowie is exhibition downstairs. We've been three times already, and it does not get old.
