SUMMARY:The Magic Experiments
DESCRIPTION:Australia’s best magicians have taken over a 30 seat theatre in Northcote. Every Tuesday night\, they use it to try things nobody has seen before. \nThat is the entire idea behind The Magic Experiments. Brand new material\, performed live\, months before it reaches a festival stage or a television screen. If you have ever wanted to see where magic actually comes from\, this is it. \nThe line up may include Dom Chambers\, Lawrence Leung\, Simon Coronel and Vyom Sharma. Between them they have appeared on America’s Got Talent\, Australia’s Got Talent and at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. \nThe room holds 30 people. You are close enough to watch hands\, faces and angles that no audience at a large venue ever gets to see. Magic at this distance is a different experience entirely. There is nowhere for a magician to hide. \nSome of what you see will be extraordinary. Some of it will be the earliest version of something that goes on to headline internationally. All of it is new\, and none of it has been performed anywhere before. That combination is very hard to find anywhere else in the world. \nThe audience matters here more than at a normal show. Reactions and feedback in the room shape what survives and what gets cut. You are not watching a finished product\, you are watching it being built\, helping shape it. \nThe Laneway Theatre is a small independent space in Northcote with a deliberately low profile. The exact address is not published. Ticket holders receive full directions by email before the show. It sits within easy reach by tram or train\, and Northcote’s bars and restaurants are a short walk away if you want to make an evening of it. \nStrictly 15+.

SUMMARY:Pet Care Crisis Appeal
DESCRIPTION:Australians will have the chance to ‘’pay it forward’’ next Wednesday\, September 2 when Lort Smith’s Pet Care Crisis Appeal goes live at 9am. \nAs living costs continue to rise\, more people are struggling to make ends meet. In the most extreme cases\, people face the harrowing decision between putting food on their family’s plate\, or paying for treatment when their pet falls ill or gets injured. \nWe believe every pet deserves the opportunity to access critical care in their time of need. Even when their person can’t afford it. That’s why we are calling on everyone to support the 24 hours only Pet Care Crisis Appeal this Wednesday September 2. \nLort Smith is Australia’s busiest not-for-profit animal hospital\, caring for over 15\,000 animals each year\, and we receive no ongoing government funding. \nThe money raised will support our urgent vet care service\, which ensures all pets who walk through our doors get access to the urgent care and treatment they need regardless of financial circumstances. \nAll donations will be doubled on this day with the money directed to vital pain relief\, life-saving diagnostics\, surgeries\, and even surgical equipment to be able to treat pets in critical condition. \nAll money will be used to help those experiencing financial hardship. \nThis is a chance for the community to ‘’pay it forward’’ when it comes to pet vet care. We hope Australia can join us and set tails wagging this Wednesday. \nAbout Lort Smith  \nLort Smith is Australia’s largest charitable animal hospital\, helping pets access essential veterinary care and supporting the people who love them since 1936. From our North Melbourne and Campbellfield sites\, we provide accessible veterinary care\, adoption services and programs that protect the human–animal bond. With no government funding\, our work is made possible by community support and includes emergency pet boarding\, pet therapy and our Pets in Need fund for the pets of people experiencing serious financial hardships. \n

Many of our stallholders design and make everything themselves\, and most are more than happy to talk you through how a piece came together. \nWHAT YOU WILL FIND \nOver 100 carefully curated stallholders\, chosen for quality and originality rather than volume. Amazing hot food from all over the world\, cooked fresh on site. A bar fully stocked with local beer\, wine and cider.

The market runs from 9am to 2pm. Easy street parking is available around the park\, and Frankston railway station and local bus routes are a short walk away\, so it is simple to arrive without a car. \nMost stallholders have card payment facilities\, but it is worth bringing some cash just in case\, as there is no ATM on site.

SUMMARY:The Enormous Radio
DESCRIPTION:An uncanny audio encounter with the animal world. \n  \nPRESENTED BY THE SUBSTATION\, CHAMBER MADE & MELBOURNE FRINGE \nChamber Made’s The Enormous Radio is a new large-scale immersive audio experience by artists Roslyn Oades and Bob Scott with collaborators. A ring of old radios replete with glowing dials\, crackling speakers and twitchy antennas fill The Substation Main Space. This strange hive has been hacked\, revived and repurposed to operate as an interconnected machine-medium capable of seeking\, receiving\, translating and transmitting uncanny messages from the animal world. \nDrawing on Australian wildlife field-recordings\, spatialised composition\, translation software\, and techno-spiritualism\, the installation conjures haunted transmissions that speculate on the possibility of interspecies communication. As acoustic ecologists make breakthroughs in deciphering animal languages\, this work asks: what if we could tune into the non-human\, the endangered\, and the wild? What might they say? \nIn the time of human-made climate emergency\, The Enormous Radio stokes our longing to connect and tune into the unknown and the wild. \nAt the heart of this project is an ongoing collaboration between innovative documentary theatre maker Roslyn Oades and internationally acclaimed sound artist Bob Scott\, whose combined skill set spans documentary\, sound design\, composition\, expanded theatre\, installation and immersive design. Their previous theatrical installation experience\, The Nightline\, was presented by Malthouse Theatre in August 2026. On The Enormous Radio they are joined by creative technologist Kevan Atkins\, production designer Jenny Hector and text dramaturg Sarah Walker. \n

SUMMARY:Into Her Power - A Day of Wisdom\, Healing and Reconnection
DESCRIPTION:Into Her Power: The Melbourne Event Reframing Menopause\nFor decades\, Australian women were expected to quietly get on with menopause. Now\, things are changing. \nMenopause has long been under discussed\, misunderstood and\, for many women\, a source of shame. But that conversation is finally shifting. The federal government has launched its first National Menopause and Perimenopause Awareness Campaign\, backed by a $792.9 million women’s health package – a significant signal that menopause is no longer something that can be treated as a private women’s issue. \nOff the back of this conversation comes Into Her Power\, a new Melbourne event designed to give women the information\, tools and community to navigate perimenopause\, menopause and beyond. \nTaking place at the historic Abbotsford Convent\, the one-day immersive experience brings together leading women’s health and wellbeing practitioners for a day of education\, movement\, healing and connection. \nRather than framing menopause as something women simply need to manage quietly\, Into Her Power approaches it as a significant life stage – one that deserves better information\, open conversation and a more holistic understanding of women’s physical and emotional wellbeing. \nThe day’s program brings together a diverse group of practitioners and perspectives. Pharmacist\, nutritionist and menopause educator Sarah Gray\, author of It’s Not You\, It’s Perimenopause\, will unpack the hormonal changes occurring throughout perimenopause and menopause\, helping women better understand what is happening in their bodies. \nDr Anny Fodor\, a Doctor of Chinese Medicine with more than 30 years’ experience working with women\, will explore Chinese medicine and feminine embodiment practices\, offering another perspective on navigating the physical and emotional changes of this stage. \nThe experience then moves beyond education into the body\, with Vickie Liew guiding participants through yoga\, Qigong and mindful movement\, while leading Australian sound healing practitioner Tanya Alijani creates space for rest\, regulation and nervous system reset. \nThere will also be nourishment\, ritual and time to connect – recognising that sometimes the most powerful part of navigating a major life transition is simply realising you aren’t the only one going through it. \nThis isn’t a traditional health seminar. It’s part education\, part embodied practice\, part ritual and part community gathering – designed to leave women with a deeper understanding of their changing bodies and a stronger sense of connection to themselves and each other. Because we have whispered about menopause for long enough – it’s time the conversation is moved out in to the open. \nThe timing feels significant. As Australia begins to have a much bigger public conversation about menopause\, Into Her Power reflects a growing appetite for experiences that move the discussion beyond symptoms and medical appointments and into everyday life. \nInto Her Power\n📍 Abbotsford Convent\, 1 St Heliers Street\, Abbotsford VIC\n📅 Saturday October 3 or Saturday October 17\, 2026\n⏰ 9.30am–4.30pm\n🎟️ Early Bird tickets from $349\n🌐 consciouskinship.com.au/into-her-power

SUMMARY:The High Kings The Rocky Road Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:A Celebration of Irish Folk on a Global Stage \nIreland’s leading folk group\, The High Kings\, are set to excite fans once again with the announcement of their Rocky Road Tour 2026. \nAs global ambassadors of Irish heritage and storytelling\, The High Kings have consistently brought the timeless tradition of folk music to audiences worldwide\, earning them chart-topping success and widespread acclaim. \nWith their signature blend of classic tradition and modern edge\, The Rocky Road Tour promises to be a vibrant showcase of Irish culture\, energy\, and musicality. \nFollowing a record-breaking 2024 – including a sold-out world tour\, a feature on Disney’s critically acclaimed Only Murders in The Building\, and over 5 million weekly streams – the band are showing no signs of slowing down. Their momentum continued in 2025 with a string of sold-out U.S. tour dates\, culminating in a headline performance at the legendary Troubadour in Los Angeles on March 23rd\, after stops in Kansas\, Nashville\, St. Paul\, St. Louis\, New York\, New Hampton\, Glen Ellen\, Ridgefield\, Alexandria\, and more. \nBut it was their inclusion on the soundtrack of Sinners—the current #1 movie worldwide\, starring Michael B. Jordan and directed by Ryan Coogler—that marked a defining moment in their global recognition. The film’s soundtrack\, already topping international streaming charts\, was curated by Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer Ludwig Göransson (Oppenheimer\, The Mandalorian\, Black Panther)\, a long-time admirer of The High Kings’ distinctive vocal blend and musicianship. \nAfter attending their sold-out show at The Troubadour in Los Angeles earlier this year\, Göransson selected two tracks—“The Rocky Road to Dublin” and “Go Lassie Go”—to feature prominently in the film’s score.
