Powderfinger has just announced details of their most extensive Australian tour to date, together with the news that they will be disbanding following the tour.

This will be Powderfinger’s first major national tour since the hugely successful Across the Great Divide tour with Silverchair almost 3 years ago.

Make, Believe is Canberra’s first exhibition to merge fashion design, mixed media and animation, and wrap it up into a pretty little package designed to delight and enchant.

The creative genius of crafty duo Amelia Thompson (of local fashion label, Grazed Youth) and Anna Madeleine, Make, Believe explores ideas of growing up and being lost in an unknown world, and conceptually draws parallels of their experiences to those encountered by the heroines of classic fairytales.

The OutInCanberra Race ‘n’ Taste Festival is back in 2010, bringing you the very best of Canberra’s wine, produce, arts and music this Anzac Day long weekend, Monday 26 April at Thoroughbred Park.

There’s only four weeks until travelling regional music festival Groovin the Moo hits Canberra with a line-up rivalled by our big city counterparts – Vampire Weekend, Silverchair, Tegan & Sara and more.

With the first GTM taking place in 2005, in the town of Gloucester (just north of Newcastle) the festival has consistantly delivered on its ethos of bringing ‘the music’ to regional cities.

Stephen Halpin, GTM Promoter, said that taking the festival to a ‘capital city’ was an interesting decision for the team to make.

The multi award-winning new film from writer/director Philippe Lioret, WELCOME is a compassionate and inspiring drama about the hope of new beginnings and the power of true love, centred on two couples contending with issues of separation and dislocation.
