Bushfire Fundraiser - Baz Luhrmann's 'Australia' - Friday February 27th


Let's reflect on our luck: we have a theatre to come together in, friends and family to share it with and homes to return to afterwards. After the fires, some communities aren't so lucky. 

The Port Fairy Film Society, Belfast Lions, Port Fairy Red Cross, Moyne Shire Council and Port Fairy Folk Festival are proudly supporting the Bushfire Relief Fund through its fundraiser screenings of Baz Lurhmann's 'Australia' on February 27th at Reardon Theatre in Port Fairy.

There will be two screenings at 1pm and 7.30pm.

Tickets can be purchased from Belfast Lions, Port Fairy Red Cross, Moyne Shire Council offices in Port Fairy and the Visitor Information Centre at Railway Place. Tickets will be available at the door subject to availability. CFA volunteers and their partners will be admitted free to the screenings.

As an epic of the forties' Hollywood tradition, 'Australia' attempts to tell the grand tale of our island home. Romance, the great glorious space, war and culture clashes. Like Hugh Jackman's intro at the Oscars, this is entertainment, not navel-gazing.

Please support this event. Bring your friends and family. $12 per ticket.
