Accessibility is a big focus of Spin Fest, Wollongong City Lord Mayor Councillor Gordon Bradbery AM said.
"There will be an Auslan interpreter on stage who has experience with interpreting concerts, and we will also be providing a small pre-booked mobility viewing area and accessible parking for those who need it." Cr Bradbery said.
Spin Fest Beach Party is a free event. There's no need to book but numbers are limited, and people will be admitted on a first in best dressed basis.
Check out the full program by visiting Spin Fest online.
"One of the best-loved features of our city is our beautiful beaches and coastal areas. That's why we think North Beach will make a truly stunning location for a night out in Wollongong," Cr Bradbery said.
Spin Fest Beach Party is an alcohol-free event. Children under the age of 16 years, must be accompanied by an adult. This is a no swimming event, and the beach will be closed to swimmers.
