Winter Wild Apollo Bay
Aug 22, 2018
For those of you in Victoria, get down to beautiful Apollo Bay this weekend for the second and final Winter Wild Festival weekend.
SFS went to the first weekend - it was world class. Great free events outdoors, music in the pubs and top bands.
This weekend's theme of Birth sees a brilliant feast of local produce Feastiality made even more delectable by cabaret performances on Friday 24th August. It kicks off with a Bouillabaise, from locally caught seafood, being cooked in a cauldron on the foreshore then meanders to the Mech Hall for more delights.
Enjoy a techno and electronic music extravaganza at Moksha - audience will be bussed to a country property.
Or enjoy Outdoor Cinema.
