Barn Dance Perth 2023

🏳‍🌈 Barn Dance Perth  

Get ready to have a blast as the Mucky Duck Bush Band takes the stage!

Now in it's fifth year, the annual Barn Dance community extravaganza is now a fixture on the LGBTIQA+ events calendar. Featuring the famous Mucky Duck Bush Band, BarbieQ, DJ H.Sailor and other special guests.

Please don't worry if you've forgotten the moves to Heel and Toe or Strip the Willow from those awkward school dance classes as The Mucky Duck Bush Band has got your back; and when you need a break from shaking it all about and clicking the shears, there is plenty of space to grab a bite to eat, drink and have a yarn.

Don't forget to dress your best, as there will be prizes for the most stylish attendees. 
Cash free and 18+ event (licenced event).

📷 Photos will be taken at this event for the use of marketing, please inform the photographer if you would prefer not to be photographed.
