Midsumma - Queer Festival

Midsumma Festival, Melbourne's annual gay and lesbian festival, is a federation of arts and cultural events spread over six municipalities and located in over 60 different venues across Melbourne.

Midsumma is presented over three weeks from mid January to February and, now celebrating it's 21st birthday, is a significant attraction on the Melbourne festival calendar.

Midsumma Festival brings together a diverse mix of artists and performers under a single umbrella for an impassioned celebration and innovative presentation of queer art and culture. The Midsumma Festival program is made up of a wide range of events and activities including visual art, theatre, spoken word, cabaret, film, live music, sport and social and political forums and debates.
