Our Trip to Daylesford to Check Out the ChillOut Festival 2018

Our Trip to Daylesford to Check Out the ChillOut Festival 2018 | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it

On the tail end of our trip to Australia, we decided to drive up from Melbourne to Daylesford to check out the ChillOut Festival, a rural LGBTQ pride event we hadn't heard of until this week.

Matt Skallerud's insight:

After a little over an hour's drive through gorgeous wooded forest and rolling hills, we found ourselves with hundreds of other LGBTQ folks in the small town of Daylesford. We perched ourselves onto a good viewing area from the sidewalk and watched the parade go by.  Great fun!
