SUNSLAY SESH – SLAYOFFS
SunSLAY SLAYOFFS is a four-week live drag competition presented by SunSLAY Drag.
The competition features 12 drag performers competing across three preliminary heats, with six contestants performing each week. Artists will showcase their drag through a lip sync performance that highlights their creativity, stage presence, and unique performance style. A panel of four judges and the audience will both play a role in determining the outcome, with one Judges’ Choice winner and one Audience Choice winner advancing from each heat.
The six finalists will return for the Grand Final, where they will perform a new number before the judges and audience each select a finalist. The final two competitors will then battle in a lip sync showdown to determine the overall winner. The winner receives a cash prize of $1000 and a future SunSLAY Adelaide Fringe opportunity.
The competition is open to drag queens, drag kings and all things between, with a focus on celebrating the diversity and talent within Australia’s drag community.

ALTA FALLS – EP LAUNCH
ALTA FALLS is releasing their most focused and fully realised EP yet, Don’t Make Me A Number, the band is taking it nationwide.
Produced by Oscar Dawson (Holy Holy, Amy Shark), Aidan Hogg (G Flip, Jaguar Jonze) and Levi Russell, the EP is cinematic, emotional and impossible to sit still to, and the live show is where it all clicks into place. Soaring harmonies.
Synth-driven hooks that sit somewhere between 80s warmth and something entirely now. Lyrics that mean something, played by a band that means it.
This is Alta Falls at full flight: a band who built something real, one city at a time, and are ready to bring it to yours.

From growing up between cultures to navigating everyday life, Peter dives into the awkward, confusing, and absurd moments we all experience but rarely talk about.
And keep an eye out… Souvlakis might be making an appearance during the night, so don’t be surprised if he ends up chatting with the crowd or pulling a few people into the fun
