Australia’s known as the lucky country, but we could also go by the moniker ‘the land of festivals’ – we certainly have our share. However, we don’t think there’s ever been a festival that’s quite like this.
This Sunday, 9th August, the public transport system of Melbourne will see the first ever Tram Fest – a series of live music sessions by some of Melbourne’s most talented emerging artists, set to entertain those travelling to La Trobe’s Open Day.
Those travelling on the 86 tram from Docklands to La Trobe’s Bundoora campus this Sunday will be treated to very special intimate performances from four rising Melbourne artists, creating a unique experience for all travellers/punters.
Organisers have put together a sublime lineup of hot local talent, including the likes of Chris Watts and Gena Rose Bruce, with each performing at different times of day and departing from different stops. Check out the lineup:
10:16am: Zech from Woodlock departs from Docklands
11:46am: Gena Rose Bruce departs from Bundoora
1:15pm: Chris Watts departs from Docklands
2:47pm: Josh Cashman departs from Bundoora
If you’re interested in checking out La Trobe’s Open Day after you’ve enjoyed the show, which by the way is totally free, you will receive advice on courses, campus tours, and will have the opportunity to explore real student life.
The 86 tram will be operating as normal during Tram Fest, so check our the appropriate timetables. Myki cards are required and all passengers are welcome at any time.
