Melbourne Minute – Docklands Arts, Laughs and Blues Festival

There’s still a couple of days left of school holidays and if you’ve run out of ideas to entertain the kids, never fear, as today marks the start of the Docklands Arts, Laughs and Blues Festival, which you guessed it, features all things arts, laughs and blues.

Running for five days until Sunday, the Wonderland Spiegeltent will be the centre of the action where one of the major highlights will be Michael Boyd’s Spellbound Illusion Spectacular on daily.

Wonderland Fun Park will host family day on Saturday featuring Snap’s Kakadu Club with ventriloquist Lindi Jane, and mini puppet show performed by Lana Schwarcz, The Tiniest Show on Earth.

For adults, there’s the Docklands Arts, Laughs and Blues Comedy Gala on Saturday night starring funny men Peter Helliar and Bob Franklin.

And on Sunday, there’ll be a free, all-day music festival with 20 Blues bands on five stages.
