Now in its 47th year, Australia’s flagship regional arts event the Castlemaine State Festival is launching its 2023 season with a preview event at Castlemaine Goods Shed Saturday January 28 at 11am.
The launch, which is open to the public will feature festival director Glyn Roberts presenting this year’s generous program which includes a vast range of free and ticketed events and the establishment of a new Festival Precinct that will bring Castlemaine alive with contemporary and classical music, performance, dialogues, cabaret, circus, comedy and DJs to entertain while audiences enjoy the best food and beverage options the region has to offer. The program launch will also include a live performance by Castlemaine’s own Eliza Hull!
2023 Festival Tickets also go live tomorrow! Make sure you grab your free copy of the Castlemaine State Festival program in next Tuesday’s January 31 edition of our sister paper the Midland Express.
