The Norfolk Lanes Youth Festival will return this year for its second glorious involvement with the Fremantle Festival. Last year was one of the highlights of the week, and this year we expect no less!!
The layout of the day will be essentially the same as last year, with our main stage located in Norfolk Lane and another, more acoustic, stage down in the X-Wray Café. The main stage will host the finest of our local electro and rock n roll protégés, and the café our acoustic darlings. The markets will also be returning to the X-Wray Piazza, with loads of cool treats for you to pick up.
The main addition to this year’s festival will be the closure of half of Essex St for us to extend our frivolities. This area will have a pop-up art gallery from the bods at The Butcher Shop, skating demonstrations, ramps and grinding poles, a whole bunch of live graffiti art happening right before your eyes, and a selection of our favourite DJs spinning the tunes in the sun. As well as this there will be artists painting moustaches on all the moustache-less in aid of Movember.
The inaugural Tweed Run will also be happening during the morning, and as many tweed clad vintage hipsters as we can find will be turning up at 12 to help complete what will surely be a wonderful spectacle. (Check out dismantle.org.au for more details)
Come and support our wonderful city, and the wealth of young artistic talent that are a massive part of it.
