NIMBUS Arts and Music

A cluster of clouds gathers over Flinders Street. Descending. Enveloping HeyDays Café.

From amidst the ethereal fog emerges a band of colourful beings. Hearts open. Imaginations wild. They bear new ideas to share.

Will you suspend all that you believe and join them as they reimagine this well-known space in unconventional ways?

Drift from heavenly cocktail lounge to techno dance floor. Follow a clay-fairy into a secret wardrobe and out the other side. Blast into outer space and feel the cosmic interconnectedness as you see the world anew.

More than 20 artists over eight hours shower you in music, dance, theatre, visual arts and sky dust. The sprinkle becomes a deluge. A rave from the clouds. A garden of hedonism. An alien worm-hole.

If you love art, and want to party, you belong at NIMBUS.

The oasis awaits.
