A night of dangerous glamour and wicked indulgence.
As darkness falls on the city, step out of the shadows for an evening of dangerous glamour and wicked indulgence at the Justice & Police Museum.
Travel back to the underworld of 1920s and 30s Sydney and be entertained by mysterious illusionists, burlesque dancers, speak-easy musicians and fortune tellers.
Spend time in the lockup with a true-crime storyteller, shoot your own silent-film scene or have your mug shot taken in the charge room. Unleash your dark side and design your own tattoo, contribute to a City of shadows crime-zine and learn razor-sharp card tricks.
Beat Prohibition – slink into the sly-grog den for cocktails and supper, and show off your gangster style for the chance to win prizes during this one-night-only event.
The Festivalists bring together artists, unusual spaces and new ideas to create stimulating, interactive cultural experiences. Presenting a range of events, from accessible film festivals to parties in iconic venues, their mission is to infuse culture with fun and develop local audiences for Australian and international artists.
