Falls Festival
The Falls Music & Arts Festival (commonly known as Falls) is a music festival held annually in Lorne, Victoria, and Marion Bay, Tasmania, Australia, on New Year's Eve. While the festival is best known for contemporary music performances, dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, as well as other art forms, are also featured at the event. Due to the length of the event, people bring a tent and camp out at the event; both locations have nearby beaches. Many artists playing at the Falls Festival are traditionally of the blues & roots genre, however it is not exclusively of this style, with rock, hip hop and electronic style acts also playing.
