Hey girl!

I heard you like Ryan Gosling

Rumours have been circling Wagga Wagga that Hollywood heartthrob Ryan Gosling will be visiting the city for a film festival in his honour as part of National Youth Week (NYW). Gosling – or possibly his cutout – has been spotted across Wagga, with fans and wouldbe paparazzi sharing shots of the actor via social media with #gosfestwagga. Council News snapped Gosling this week checking out the site of the festival from the Civic Theatre balcony with local fan Jess Facey (pictured). The Ryan Gosling Film Festival will give fans of all ages the chance to watch the actor’s best-known films The Notebook and Crazy Stupid Love under the stars at the Wollundry Amphitheatre on 17 April from 6pm.

Right across the city there’s something for kids of all ages, with the showpiece event being a free all-ages concert as part of National Youth Week (NYW). Press Play has been curated and designed by youth, for youth and will feature some of the nation’s most talented emerging bands, plus some of the best
