Every Weekend in August

This is a once-in-a-lifetime NEWSFLASH. Finucane & Smith are reopening the beloved, iconic Luna Palace after 5 long years, with the absolute festival of fearless fun

Dance Palace.

A carnival of hot divas that only Finucane & Smith can dream up: pub rock queens and Bollywood love gods, torch singers and clothes flingers, First Nations genius, eye-bursting burlesque, toe tapping and swinging from the rafters, gothic legends (alright let’s just say Moira) plus WTAF, and art with an ahhhh.

Plus booze and hot chips at the bar!

We are turning 30. The little company that could. Surviving, thriving, and making art with an ahhhh.  It's time to party!

Where better than in one of the world’s most beloved heritage amusement parks?

Spectacular views, spectacular art, do not miss out!
