The Gold Coast’s premier culture and entertainment precinct, Home of the Arts (HOTA), will host the festival-style celebration across eight sessions, with world-class performers wowing crowds with performances across the weekend. We’re talking big-name acts like Circa, Hoopla Clique, Flipside Circus, Company 2 (who will tightrope across Lake Evandale)!

For the gourmets out there, the adults-only Ultimate Ice Cream Experience is a five-course sweet and savoury ice cream degustation paired with a selection of boozy beverages, priced at $120 and available at five sessions. 

The 6 pm-9 pm sessions on Friday and Saturday will also see the site transform into CLUB SCOOP!, with boozy ice cream combos, after-dark tunes and entertainment, and lots of cold ones for the grown ups.
