ELIZABETH ST

Rockabillies, lindy-hoppers, swingsters and cha cha cha-ers will converge on Sydney's CBD as Elizabeth Street is transformed into a contemporary outdoor dance palace. Relive the glory of the 1940's and 50's Trocadero as the decadent glamour of this era fills the streets. Hosted by uber-diva Trevor Ashley, this 21st Century twist on a 50's classic climaxes with the jiving sounds of the Sirens Big Band. Frock up in all your fabulous finery and join the dancing crowds at Festival First Night's hottest new precinct. But before the swinging furore begins, warm up your dance moves to Melbourne's soul sensations Electric Empire and Jamaica's most dapper gents, The Jolly Boys.
