Dusk in Stonnington during January means one thing Sunset Sounds. Now in its 6th year, this much loved series of free live music concerts has become a staple of the summer season, drawing music lovers, families, and friends to Stonnington’s picturesque parks and gardens.
This year’s edition brought together an exciting mix of pop, jazz, soul, funk, blues, and roots, creating a diverse and energetic atmosphere that had everyone swaying to the beat. Crowds gathered with picnic blankets, indulged in treats from food trucks, and danced beneath the evening sky, truly a celebration of music, community, and the great outdoors.
Behind the seamless enjoyment was StateGuard Protective Services , working diligently to ensure the event was safe, secure, and family-friendly.
