CresFest Busking

Busking is welcome at CresFest and is open to anyone who would like to share their music during festival hours. Buskers help create the lively, welcoming atmosphere that makes the festival special.

Please check the festival map for the designated busking zones and perform within the highlighted areas only. To keep things fair and enjoyable for everyone, amplification is not permitted, so all performances should be acoustic.

We encourage musicians of all styles and ages to take part, connect with audiences, and add to the vibrant street life of CresFest.

Play kindly, respect other performers and nearby venues, and most importantly—have a great festival! 🎶

CresFest acknowledges the traditional owners of the land on which we live, learn and work, the Dja Dja Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation.
We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders and recognise that sovereignty was never ceded.
