Junction is a festival of extraordinary arts experiences that utilises unique and unconventional spaces to present both site-specific and traditional works throughout Launceston. The Festival is held in the first week of September, celebrating the emergence from winter and welcoming in the Spring. Junction is a leader in cultivating and celebrating Tasmania’s thriving arts sector, connecting audiences with dynamic and innovative new work being created by Tasmanian artists. Junction is a festival in which contemporary art and music have broken out of theatres, galleries and music venues and into the streets, public spaces and extraordinary buildings that make Launceston so special. With its stunning mix of Georgian, Victorian and Art Deco architecture, beautiful 19th Century English parks and the Cataract Gorge at its doorstep, Launceston is the perfect setting to discover and participate in art and music experiences unique to Tasmania.
