Turning 30 in 2010, St Kilda Festival is one of Australia's best known and Melbourne's most loved events. It utilises St Kilda's stunning foreshore and celebrates the cream of Australia's musical talents.
Saturday 6 February is Yalukit Wilam Ngargee: People, Place Gathering, an outdoor Indigenous festival featuring music, dance, children's activities and more that welcomes people to St Kilda for the week ahead, O'Donnell Gardens.
From 7-13 February experience Live N Local: St Kilda venues throw open their doors to host a variety of local bands, musicians, performers, artists and comedians in a series of one off and special events - everything you love about St Kilda and more.
14 February is Festival Sunday: be treated to a rich and diverse range of Australian talent, with more than 50 bands performing across the stages, plus extreme sports, dance, children's entertainment...the list goes on and on. Set against the backdrop of St Kilda, St Kilda Festival is the only place to be. And the best bit, it's all for free!
St Kilda Festival is produced by the City of Port Phillip, the backbone of the Festival - providing key funding, core staff and resources that have allowed the Festival to grow and expand each year. The City of Port Phillip is known and recognised for its commitment to the arts and festivals. Its flagship events - St Kilda Festival and St Kilda Film Festival - are as world renowned for their high quality as much as their diversity and are stand out events in a crowded cultural calendar
A hallmark for St Kilda and the City of Port Phillip... it's Australian music, it's summer, it's St Kilda, it's free and it's your Festival... there's a lot to celebrate!
