DreamBIG Children's Festival
DreamBIG Children's Festival, formerly Come Out Festival or Come Out Children's Festival, is a large biennial arts festival for schools and families held in South Australia.
It began as the Come Out Festival in 1974 as part of the Adelaide Festival of Arts and became a stand-alone biennial event in 1975. The first biennial event was held at the Adelaide Festival Centre, and it has been produced by the Centre since 2015. The festival's name was changed from "Come Out" in 2017, when the organisers decided the term was no longer appropriate due to its meaning for the LGBTI community. More than 2 million children have participated in the Festival since 1974.
