Changing Lanes made its debut in Newtown last year and was an overwhelming success. The event combined music, art and fashion and included acts such as Tame Impala and Itch-e & Scratch-e resulting in the event selling out in only a week.

Festival Director, Danae Goiser said “We are pretty blown away by the creative concepts some of the artists have come up with for this year’s event. It’s an inspiring time to be involved in Sydney’s creative communities and we’re so proud to be able to provide a platform for artists to showcase their talents.”
