Midsumma Carnival 2018

Fiona will be in attendance from midday onwards.

The Fiona Patten MLC stand is numbered B12 D

Don’t miss Melbourne’s most famous family-friendly community day that kicks off summer’s beloved three-week Midsumma Festival season. Midsumma Carnival will serve-up a tasting plate of performances and personalities from the festival program – in one giant showcase – with something for everyone.

Check out sports displays, get pooch-smooched at the famous Dog Show, see some amazing queer creations at the new Fashion Design Competition, or test out your favourite songs in the Lipsync Limelight competition.

Food trucks, bars and stalls galore, all top-full of treats to keep you hydrated, fed and in the community spirit.

There’ll be an under 18s area hosted by Australia’s largest youth organisation Minus18; a rest zone; and Midsumma Carnival’s first-ever tactile installation by Slow Art Collective in collaboration with Description Victoria – for those that want to feel the community vibe across all of their senses.

This year we’ll have a cloakroom, located beside the main Information and Ticketing point, open until 10:30pm. Bring the kids, the sunscreen and a picnic lunch if you like – but please don’t bring any glass containers or bottles with you! We’d hate to see paws, feet and knees coming out a little worse for wear after a lovely day on the grassy knolls of Alexandra Gardens.
