Dear Suburban Live Music Warriors,

Our much-loved celebration of suburban music and culture The Carnival of Suburbia Festival is currently on a bit of a hiatus.

Before you shriek in horror and collapse on the floor, please be assured we are very committed to again running the festival some time in the near future.

We are immensely proud of the program we presented on a shoestring budget for 3 years, which attracted a lot of media attention and was attended by some 3000 people annually in the very busy March festival period.

The idea of a suburban festival is undoubtedly a good one that resonated with the community but we feel if we are to grow and sustain the festival into the future we need to reformat, restructure and attract more sponsorship and hopefully a few bucks from the public arts funding purse.

Mark, Peter and all the Carny Crew
