Loverpalooza:  with Patience Hodgson & friends

Defy gravity and climb sky high as we send out BrisFest 2022 in the company of the stars 💫

RAISE THE ROOF with Patience Hodgson & friends at The Terrace Rooftop Bar.

Caught between solid earth and the stars, you’re invited into one of six universes filled with music, art, misfits and mayhem as the city's most vibrant artists carve out ethereal spaces on iconic Brisbane rooftops, each as unique and bespoke as the next.

LOVERPALOOZA

Chart-topping musician Patience Hodgson pulls out her Super Secret Diary and invites her closest musical mates sky-high for a ritzy party that promises to be as big on heart as it is on glitter.

Sharing the love in three acts — Telling Love, Singing Love and Making Love — Patience will explore the good bits, the bad bits, and everything in between, of this crazy little thing called love.

Doused in tinsel from head-to-toe, Patience collaborates with sparkle sister Rachel Burke to create a razzle-dazzle rooftop where music, art, love and chance joyously intersect beneath the mirrorball for a moment in time.

Don’t miss this extraordinary immersive evening, filled with art, music, good food and wine and great company. Your evening includes a 3 hour food and beverage package so grab your friends, make it a date night and Raise the Roof on BrisFest closing weekend at Loverpalooza!

💖Curated around a single colour palette, the only way in is to wear your heart on your sleeve (but make sure to add some pink sparkle and glitter!)💖

Featuring 

Patience Hodgson and The Simi Lacroix Band, with guest performers Hope D, Sahara Beck, Jem Cassar-Daley, Trent Dalton, The Huxley’s, Bekky the Good Witch and Wandering Minstrels.
