THE HANGAR & SIDESHOW AREA (OPEN FROM 4PM)

The Hangar Sideshow area & site activations within the Hangar is not just a stage & venue, behind the spinning neon 3D projections & giant neon lettering of the front gate it's truly more like a mini festival (a great way to enjoy some sweet festival vibes in a safe environment in these event restricted times!) // The site contains all the classic festi vibe stuff; a cool bar & delicious food, gelato, coffee & hot bevs by Retro Kombi & The Gnarly Bus. The sideshow brings a taste of the wild & wacky side of the classic festival experience. Curated by Cindy Doolan of The Other Empire (the brains behind This That Festival's "The Other" area & Lost Paradise Festival's "Love Letter Post Office" & "Mini Bike Mafia" to name just a few of her recent activations) The Hangar Sideshow features a number of walk thru, pop up interactive fun activations & activities, some you can just sit & watch others that welcome you to get up & involved. 

Concepts like:
The Booty Parlour
The House of Olor - Olor is a pink elephant, with a joystick you control his vacuum trunk to

pick up a coloured ball - what message will you find inside?
Giant Neon Crescent Moon Photobooth
The All Seeing Eye - soothsaying, fortune telling, oracle - may know something, may know nothing.

Sit down in a rotating 70s egg chair & see what the Eye knows about you!
Dancing With The Stars - interactive puppet show & film op with The Squeaking Tribe.
Interplanetary Tuning Fork Alignments
Late Night Nipple Readings - adults only fortune telling method passed down thru the ages.

Slip into our Nipple Reading Teepee & see what the future holds for thee.

There will also be fantastical interactive roving performances throughout the site & many more fascinating attractions.

THE SHOW: THE INTERGALACULAR SCI-FI SPECTACULAR (from 8PM)

An incredibly strange, wild & wonderful intergalactic cabaret show in its own purpose built, pop-up shipping container venue "THE HANGAR" in Civic Park. Enjoy the show under the light of our giant illuminated moon.

The 18+ show features:
*Epic staged song & dance numbers.
*Strange & exotic ultradimensional burlesque performances & dance.
*Bizarre & confusing intergalactic ritual.

Bound together by the bizarre interactive comedic stylings of MC Milky D

PLEASE NOTE: This show is explicit, contains adult themes & nudity and is obviously 18+

"Strange...amazing!"
"...like Spiegeltent meets Eurovision in outer space."

​

It's all outdoors & open air so we can all relax and party for a little bit after.
