The overnight art party that is White Night is heading back to Victoria in September and October, as White Night Bendigo and White Night Geelong make their return in 2022.
Colourful projections by The Electric Canvas, with stunning projections from First Nations artists Troy Firebrace and Natasha Carter, will light up the city, transforming the streets, laneways, parks and the Bendigo foreshore.
The festival also features a host of installations, musical performances and interactive works that you can get amongst in the wee hours of the morning, including a magical, 10m-long, lion-like creature that will be stalking the streets.
This visual spectacular and cultural event debuted in Bendigo back in 2018 with over 60,000 attendees passing through the festival. The 2022 iteration comes to Bendigo on Saturday, September 3. Bendigo was the second regional Victorian town to host White Night after Ballarat – with White Night also announcing a new Geelong date for 2022.
Melbourne’s version of White Night has since merged with Melbourne Festival to create a new winter festival called Rising.
