Crackin’ goodness into the bowl we are, doing our best to include all the flavours of the musical rainbow, a little something for everyone and a whole lot more for those willing to give discovery a shot. The Gum Ball is, without a doubt, truly something special. The Dashville team is so proud to be able to bring this event to you and so stoked to be able to provide a platform for such great social and artistic connection for both young and old.
Held on the last weekend of the April school holidays, we hope to see you along in 2018!
For those yet to experience it, The Gum Ball is about as ideal as it gets. A BYO, all-age music and arts festival with onsite camping, featuring an array of amazing gourmet food and markets, licensed bar precinct, popular late night silent disco, a night-time kids crèche, various workshops and activities, morning yoga, pro skater demos and live artworks. The festival ends Sunday lunch but you have the opportunity to purchase a ticket to the Sunday Wind Down, which is another night of camping, along with a bit more live music on the porch and an optional communal roast dinner (not included in camping ticket).
