Located at the top end of the festival, the Wild West remains one of our favourite city districts, with no shortage of ad hoc street performances, bars and live venues to keep folks entertained. Yeeehi!

Call me a miserable old git but I really don’t get the appeal of this festival.
That’s because you’re a miserable old git! It’s a wonderful festival, full of creativity.
Yeah, I never got fancy dress parties as a kid or anything like that so that’s probably why this really doesn’t appeal .
Anyway glad you enjoyed it and hope you are well. I expect Urban is a bit quieter in my absence.
It’s anything but a ‘fancy dress party.’ You really should try these things before dismissing them from afar.
