Introducing our all-new show and super freaky line up:

Scarab 
Having started her own performance troupe in Cambodia back in 2019,  Scarab has since performed for one of the Deputy Prime Ministers in Cambodia, is a Performance Coordinator for Esoteric Festival and is the resident Fire Performer for Drag'd Out Beechworth. 
Scarab is sure to capture your attention performing on her feet and more impressively with her feet! 

Loki
With less than 150 sword swallowers worldwide, WGFS is proud to include Melbourne's very own sideshow talent, Loki! Not only can he swallow swords, drill pieces or basically anything else he thinks will make you squirm.  Loki is the master of putting God knows what into God knows where!

Kinetic Chaos - The Bloody Butcher
A multi-disciplined movement artist, Juggler, Dancer and Flow Artist.
Kinetic Chaos draws on a diverse range of movement styles to craft his performances, which range from illusionary displays of geometry in motion, to raw and unrefined expressions of emotion, soul and animalistic desire.
For 'The World's Greatest Freakshow' Kinetic Chaos will bring 'The Bloody Butcher' back to life. His humor is side splitting but let's just hope he doesn't butcher the show. 

Goldie
In most jobs you're told to be flexible... Well, Goldie may have taken this statement too literally as WGFS incredibly talented contortionist.  
Now let's put her hot and twisted body off the ground and see what she can do! 

Aleksandra The Great
Dubbed “Gruesome - yet Oddly Sexy” by The Advertiser and often gets mistaken for a Macedonian King, Aleksandra The Great, the self proclaimed Certified Freak, Queerdo for Hire and all round Funny Bitch, has electrified audiences all over the world. 

This Professional Hot Mess has been celebrated for the last 30 years as a triple threat and has now added Sideshow Circus Performer to their repertoire. From there they fashioned this amazing hybrid entertainer who is truly one of a kind with performances that will have you on the edge of your seat in anticipation.

Mellowtonic is back for a Espy Residency!

Get down and show some support and go home after a sick night having found your new favourite band. See you all there for a boogie and a mosh.

In 2003 two young Sydneysiders started making beats together at their inner-city studio. They began by banging out DJ sets in small clubs, testing out tracks they’d made together at home alongside tunes that were inspiring them at the time.

In the 20 years since, The Presets live show has grown into an audio-visual behemoth that’s dominated festival main stages around the world, but a recent visit to a legendary Sydney nightclub where the duo cut their teeth inspired the guys to celebrate their anniversary by going back to where it all began.

The Presets are excited to announce DJ sets around Australia, playing small clubs and bars, reconnecting with the electric spirit that got them making music in the first place.
