Melbourne's Midsumma Festival returns for 2019

Midsumma Festival will reveal itself in all its finery once again, bringing a kaleidoscope of pre-eminent queer arts and cultural festivities from 19 January to 10 February 2019.
Celebrating LGBTQIA+ cultures since 1988, Midsumma Festival offers Melbourne audiences a diverse array of spectacular performances, exhibitions, talks and social events with leading international, national and local artists.
2019 will see 165 events created by 1,600 artists and performers across 75 venues aiming to foster LGBTI pride and to celebrate our diverse communities.
Highlights include the ever-popular Midsumma Extravaganza featuring Joel Creasey, Zoe Coombs Marr and Trevor Ashley, Truly Madly Britney, the tale of two boyfriends embarking on a pilgrimage along the holy sites of Britney Spear’s 2007 breakdown, and MDSLX by Motus, touted as a “perceptions-scrambling trip” by the New York Times.
