And the winners are…

In case you missed it, we live streamed the draw of our Melbourne Gay and Lesbian Chorus REBEL REBEL winners in a dorky video on Facebook. It’s already racked up over 1500 views! Wow!

We’ve tried to notify the winners but only one has responded so far! That means one of them has missed the video completely – is it you?

Launching new Frolic website features!

We’re super proud to announce new features to the Frolic website www.frolicfestival.org!

Firstly, you’ll find a new events page! This page will list all local upcoming LGBTIQA+ events – including every Frolic festival event when our program is finalised. You’ll be able to go straight there and get all the information you need – including maps, ticket information, and a handy feature to save them into your own calendar. Check it out now to find three events coming up very soon in Ballarat!

Secondly, we now have a recent news section on the home page so you don’t miss the latest Frolic news. You can also head to the new blog page on the top menu to go back in time and flick through all our previous news items.

Thirdly, we’ve added an ‘about us’ section – in case you still have no idea who we are or what we do.

And lastly, we’ve added a new volunteers page filled with handy information on what Frolic volunteers do and how to sign up to volunteer.

There’s still a few small changes we’ll be adding to the website but until then, we hope you like the new website as much as we had fun updating it! ❤️

National Reconciliation Week 2019

Today marks the beginning of National Reconciliation Week.

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the region in which we hold our festival, the Wathaurong people, whose land was stolen, never ceded. We pay tribute to elders past, present and future.

We also acknowledge that we need to constantly strive to do better and commit to greater intersectionality, empathy, respect, and diversity within Frolic.
