Unfortunately we've had to cancel Viva la Gong 2021 due to public health concerns.
Viva la Gong is our city's celebration of art and culture, held on the second Saturday in November.
With great live music, performances, art, crafts, food stalls and play zones, Viva is loads of fun for everyone.
Viva la Gong didn't go ahead in 2020 or 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but you can check out some photos from our 2019 festival below.
