It was such a great Atmosphere at the Launch Party of Wynnum Fringe last night.
We were given a glimpse into the acts, which look truly amazing, and heard about the wonderful connection that this will bring for our wider Queensland community.
Make sure you support this event, which wouldn't be possible without the dedication and hard work from Tom Oliver and team, as well as the support from local businesses like Keid In Electrical.
Tickets are now on sale, and get in quick as they are sure to sell out quickly!
