Laughs and music at Falls

Party planners for this year’s Falls Festival Lorne have announced the arts and comedy acts that will deliver the belly aches at next month’s 2019 send-off.

Touring the east coast and hitting the funny bones of audiences in Lorne, Marion Bay and Byron Bay will be Rhys Nicholson, Steph Tisdell, Daniel Townes, Stevenson Brothers and Fricker.

Cameron James will MC the comedy tent at both Lorne and Marion Bay, while Kristy Webeck will keep the schedule running on time in Byron Bay.

Lorne will have its own “Rancho Relaxo” – a mega lifestyle precinct fitted with an eclectic offering of craft sessions, yoga, live music, meditation and dance workshops, discussion panels, massage, universal markets, healthy food options, speciality bars and the famous silent disco.

The festival has also introduced a “neon nights” fancy-dress theme for New Year’s Eve at all its east coast locations, with patrons encouraged to drape themselves in bright colours and patterns.
