Busk Stop

Busk Stop is an exciting series of outdoor street performances held across key locations in central Dandenong.

Local artists and performers from a variety of styles including musicians, singers, jugglers, mimes and dancers will perform at one of three designated 'Busk Stops'.

This initiative is part of a pilot project to promote street performers in the city and will inform an ongoing, rotating seasonal busking program encouraging artists, schools and musicians to showcase their talents.

Busk Stop will be held from late April until the beginning of June across three locations, 

  • The Checkerboard (Corner Langhorne and Lonsdale streets, Dandenong) - Wednesdays 1, 8, 15, 22 May and Saturday 1 June
  • Harmony Square - Saturday 27 April and Thursdays 2, 9, 16, 23 May
  • Palm Plaza - Fridays 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31 May and Saturday 18 May

Please note that there are no wet weather contingencies.

If you would like to be involved in future Busk Stops, please contact the Placemaking and Revitalisation team on 8571 5100 or placemaking@cgd.vic.gov.au
