Every city in the world has distinct pockets of color, culture and character. London has Covent Garden, Paris has Montmartre, New York has Time Square and out of Brisbanes many precincts - one stands out from the crowd - Caxton Street.
 
  
On Sunday 1 May 2011, Caxton Street will be transformed into one of the greatest seafood and wine events Australia has to offer. Three stages of entertainment provide the soundtrack for Brisbanes biggest street party. Bring the family for a slice of musical culture under the Brisbane winter sunshine with jazz, blues and groove and pop from some of Australia's favourite recording artists. Then once the sun goes down, dance and rock out to your favourite tunes!
