Culture cats, music lovers, Melburnians, honorary and wannabe Melburnians: stretch out those languid holiday limbs of yours — the Brunswick Music Festival draws near.
One of this Melbourne's most vibrant precincts will pulse with creative energy for two weeks, starting with the Sydney Road Street Party on Sunday 2 March.
Internationally recognised Arts and Events Company, Strut & Fret Production House, will be running things for the first time promising a calendar of scintillating transformations to Brunswick, serving up acts from the mesmerising to the lullabying and dance-afying.
