Stargazed Festival reignites the flames of Footscray by showcasing some of the best in local arts and music.
From the 1st to the 16th of May, a series of immersive concerts and experiences will envelop the area and draw your attention to some more unusual locations.
An immersive Roller Disco experience will get your dark heart moving, whilst experimental sound, video and Virtual Reality performances in a disused ammunition facility will evoke the ghosts of Footscray past. For a relaxing afternoon, take a boat ride down the Maribyrnong River whilst being serenaded by dreamy acoustic folk music, or join us for an evening of films curated by local filmmakers. Enjoy a New Wave rock concert at Kindred Studios showcasing one-off performances from Stargazed Records artists, or mix it up at the variety show, including burlesque, at the Footscray Park Bowls Club. And yes, you can bowl!
Stargazed is a not-for-profit art collective and record label, specialising in immersive experiences and based in Footscray, Victoria.
