TAKE the plunge into 12 days of arts and cultural entertainment at Festival 2018 during the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games in April.
The festival will present a spectacular line-up of more than 1000 performances that will light up the Gold Coast's streets, beaches and waterways.
One of the most visually startling exhibits will be Museum of the Moon by UK artist Luke Jerram, an incredible seven-metre-wide floating moon sculpture with detailed NASA imagery on its surface. Each centimetre of the replica equals five kilometres of the lunar surface.
While you bask in the moonlight, you can listen to a surround-sound composition featuring archive audio from the moon landings, by BAFTA award-winning composer Dan Jones.
This is the first time the exhibit has been in Australia. As it travels around the world it gathers new musical compositions, personal responses, stories and mythologies.
