Event Description

Byron’s 4th Annual Beggars Banquet

When: Saturday 5th Dec
Where: Railway Park, Byron Bay
Time: 11am till late

Byron’s 4th Annual Beggars Banquet promises yet another smorgasbord of feasting, merriment and entertainment for the whole family.

The Banquet kicks off at 11. Come dressed as your favourite character and join in the Beggar Queen’s Parade, leaving St Vinnies in Marvel St at 12 noon. Bring a plate and enjoy the free community feast. Santa will be part of the fun. Check out the Rainbow Dreaming exhibit, just back from New York, Harvest Fest, Woodstock and San Francisco

.
Featured acts include: Byron Hip Hop School, Byron Samba Social Club, The Big Band, Greg Sheehan & friends, Laura Target & Matt Connolly, Kindread, Tropicoso, Rose & Yoway, Scurvy Dog (Nimbin), The Mixed Bag (Lismore) and dances by Lotusdevi, Belinda Burton, Tatania and fire bellydance duo Feugo. There will be a Big Drum Up at sunset led by Gina and the night will end with a DJ set by long time local favourites POB & Sara.

And it’s all for a good cause: to fund the new drop in centre in Fletcher St. With sound by Adam Pippin and lights by Squiffy Vision, Railway Park is where it’s happening on Sat 5th Dec.
