Attend Falls Music & Arts Festival, Australia

Add to My List Check Off

The Falls Music & Arts Festival happens simultaneously in the Australian cities of Lorne, Victoria and Marion Bay, Tasmania. The festival provides attendees a few days outdoors with fun in the sun as the perfect way to unwind at the end of the year. The Falls Festival is held during the Australian summer with an agenda that is jam packed with contemporary music, warm weather, camping and art exhibitions. The locations of the happenings sees one in staged in a rainforest and the other on an idyllic beach which only adds to the experience. More than 130 bands and solo performers appear on multiple stages at the 2 venues with most of the entertainers to be found at both locations, albeit on different days. Both venues present a “Village” which is the site of yoga sessions, samba classes, circus workshops, puppetry, burlesque and comedy as part of the never ending list of unexpected diversions. Art Camps provide an opportunity for attendees to express themselves with the stimuli of the festival in the background. There’s also an ongoing “Fiesta” that motivates participants to don a costume, paint their face and join in the Conga line parade. Lorne, Victoria is just outside the city of Melbourne. Visitors to the area may also venture to see the world famous rock formation known as the 12 Apostles, perhaps surf at iconic Bell’s Beach or experience the wonder that is Melbourne either before or after the festival. Marion Bay on the Australian island State of Tasmania is near the waterfront of the Tasmanian Capital city of Hobart where festival goers can view the finishers in the Sydney to Hobart Yacht race after the completion of the Falls Festival or explore the magnificent great outdoors of the wonderfully unspoiled Tasmanian countryside. In addition to the abundant availability of camping, which seems to be part of the Falls Festival experience, accommodations in either location ranging from hostels to luxury hotels are readily available. Your dream trip of a lifetime to Australia can be made even more so by including attendance at the Falls Festival in Tasmania or Victoria on your list. Take a few days to experience the art and magic that makes the Falls Festival and create memories that will last forever.
