this city, that responded to our audiences and to our artists and which offered all our partners, including our many valuable corporate and private supporters, an association with an important international cultural event of which we can all be proud. We aimed to hold a mirror up to this beautiful city to reflect the many inspiring and distinctive qualities that make Melbourne the unique and fascinating city we love. I thank everyone who has helped make this possible. Providing invaluable opportunities... ensuring that the Festival’s impact is not over in 17 days.
