Brunswick Music Festival 12th - 22nd March (Street party 1st March)

The Brunswick Music Festival has been held annually in February-March since 1989 and is one of Victoria's premier music festivals and a major multi cultural event for Australia. The festival is an integral part of a statewide circuit of visual, sporting, culinary and performing art celebrations held in the early months of the year - during Australia's summer and autumn seasons.

Home to the Festival is the City of Moreland, one of the most culturally diverse communities in Australia with 35% of its residents born outside Australia and with many languages other than English spoken in the home. Cultural activities have produced a vibrant artistic community with a growing emergence in the last decade. This influx of artists continues to shape and change the cultural life of the City. Amidst this colourful backdrop, the Brunswick Music Festival has emerged, bringing world music to our doorsteps! - Read more click here
