HOMEBAKE Music, Film & Arts Festival 2011 - The Classic Edition!

Yes folks, Sydney city’s historic Domain will once again come alive with the sound of music, film, laughs and more with the much anticipated return of Homebake after having had a short break in 2010. Over the years, HOMEBAKE has played host to a virtual swag of national and internationally famous local superstars, and has now matured to become one of Australia’s most important and respected festival events, and for this very reason, we are thrilled (& forever grateful) to return bigger and brighter than ever with our most musically eclectic, stunning and incredibly talented selection of the finest artists borne out of the Southern Hemisphere.

Despite the ‘classic’ moniker - & similar to other major festival events worldwide nowadays - Homebake always pays dignified host and respect to those purveyors of music genres of the past, and this year sees us welcome some of the most honoured musicians in Australian music history alongside the biggest contemporary names (including comedy and film).

So…for the young, the old, and the fun at heart, it is with great pleasure and excitement that we ask you all to put on your dancing shoes and join us on Saturday December 3rd in the Domain in Central for Homebake 2011 presents a very special day of entertainment.
