Renaissance renditions of Bee Gees? Only at one festival
With portraits ‘singing’ Aussie pop classics, fires in the botanic gardens and dinosaurs at the zoo, Adelaide’s Illuminate Festival wants to lure you out this winter.
From building-sized deepfakes of Renaissance icons miming Australian pop hits to fires deliberately lit in botanic gardens and dinosaurs at the zoo, Adelaide’s Illuminate winter festival aims to surprise.
July will mark the fourth outing for Illuminate, which has received a renewal of South Australian government funding after 1.3 million attendances last year, generating an estimated $54 million for the state’s economy.
