Come experience the new hum happening in Tadao Ando’s iconic pavilion, as we celebrate the launch of Season 11 

It’s opening night! So, in collaboration with PBS 106.7FM, we’re kicking things off with a night of garden partying and sound-art immersion. First, we’ll glide into celebrations with a set from Driftwood—a duo featuring two Melbourne/Naarm experimental music mainstays, Aviva Endean and Nick Ashwood. It’s immersive, celestial stuff—emblematic of the new music program.

Then, as the evening evolves, we’ll welcome PBS DJs Shio (Eternal Rhythm PBS) and DJ Friday (Headhunters PBS) to the decks. Grab a drink and gather on the spring-warmed lawns, as music and mingling spills out into the Gardens.

An apt way to reset and revel as the new season gets underway.
