Over 800 music, theatre, comedy, and cabaret performances are taking place from Ipswich to the Sunshine Coast, as part of Queensland’s Anywhere Festival.

The not-for-profit festival has artists perform in backyards, ferry stops, and warehouses, and allows audiences who may not have access to traditional venues to experience live performance. 

The festival has provided nearly a million dollars to local performers to create 137 mostly new productions and will continue until May 23.
