Australia’s premier body painting event is taking place on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 April in the Noosa Hinterland town of Cooroy in a new venue at Apex Park. With a theme this year of ‘other worlds’ it is sure to offer up art to delight the senses. The festival is a colourful and creative experience for all ages and offers a unique free weekend of activities. There are workshops, interactive art, street performers, a wonderful selection of market stalls, delectable food and activities for the kids.

“Spectators always say what a wonderful experience it is to see living works of art come to life. This year, you can expect to have an out of this world experience with so much on offer thanks to our funding partners and sponsors,” Danielle said.
