It’s the perfect way to kick off what’s set to be an unforgettable festival. And hold onto your hats—there’s more to come with more shows being announced soon!
But the festival isn’t just about the performances. It’s all about the vibe, the energy, and the community. Sip on a fancy cocktail at their stylish bar (free entry, by the way—yes, really) and enjoy the buzzing atmosphere. Or catch the Cabaret Gala Show, where you’ll be treated to an exciting mix of performances and cheeky pop-up surprises throughout the night.
Fancy a little extra magic? Head over to the Living Portrait Theatre and get immortalised as a work of art—because who wouldn’t want to see themselves in the spotlight? This one is also free to participate, with $10 prints of the portrait available.
With four days of non-stop fun, flair, and fabulousness, the Ballarat Cabaret Festival is the place to be this May.
So grab your tickets, bring your best glam, and get ready for a festival that’s all about celebrating the art of performance in the most fabulous way possible!
