A festival of stories and adventure

The festival will include stories, activities, performances, workshops and competitions.

Central Geelong’s popular children’s festival Storyfest is back for the 2021 autumn school holidays, April 2-18, 2021.

An initiative of Central Geelong Marketing, the 17-day festival features an exciting program of stories, adventures, fun activities, live performances, hands on and virtual workshops, Easter activities, competitions and exhibitions.

Headlining Storyfest are these amazing events not to be missed…

A brand new story time exhibit ‘Fully Immersive Story Time’ will be at MoPA:

Museum of Play and Art for the whole school holidays. The exhibit features live and recorded stories by Australian writers and illustrators, with interactive and immersive features for a whole-of story experience.

The ROARSOME ‘Dinomania – Interactive Dinosaur Stage Show’ is a fun family show spectacular, featuring six life-size dinosaur puppets.

Imaginations will run wild as the audience embarks on an awe inspiring, exhilarating and gripping journey back through time to an age when dinosaurs roamed the earth. This is a family-friendly musical adventure that is out of this world.

The Storyfest Writing Competition is open to all Victorian residents aged 8-18 who have a story to tell about the environment. There are great prizes to be won and Platform Arts will host some writing and poetry workshops for inspiration.

Easter hasn’t been forgotten with a visit to Central Geelong by the Easter Bunny and augmented reality activities featuring your favourite bunny and his friends.

Storyfest activities are hosted by Central Geelong businesses and Central Geelong Marketing. The event is in multiple venues and public spaces across Central Geelong and online.
