GET FESTIVE AT FLINDERS

  • Do

Festive At Flinders is coming this December 14! Immerse yourself in the fusion of ancient traditional and contemporary Aboriginal dance, song and storytelling by award-winning group Yellaka, followed by the uplifting sounds of the Tutti Arts Choir, ‘Tutti’ meaning everyone this choir is a testament to the wonderfully diverse set of vocalists in Adelaide, it will be hard not to be inspired, and in awe of this choir.

Flinders is excited to be able to bring Adelaide’s premier samba bands, dancers and drummers; Jambu Loco, Sambatuka and Las Chicas Bomba bringing the sounds of the world, enriching cultural diversity to the stage before ARIA and APRA award-winning musician and all-time Adelaide favourite, Peter Combe gets kids, big and small, up and dancing.

Flinders are honoured to be able to host stage darling, Ali McGregor, who traverses the worlds of opera and popular culture like no other. Either as an award-winning principal Soprano with Opera Australia, as an internationally renowned cabaret artist, or as a regular guest on TV shows. On this night she will be performing JAZZAMATAZZ!, a jumpin’, jiving’ jazz show for all kids, young and old.

You’ll also enjoy a Christmas classic, The Grinch (2018) on the big screen, meet Head Elf and Personal Assistant to Santa, Elfrehd, along with fellow North Pole pals, Mitchii & Chrissie, will take a much needed and well-deserved break from their busy Xmas schedules to drop by and say HI HI HI. They may be joining in and enjoying the festivities but they will still be on keeping an eye on who is naughty and nice and checking their lists twice.
