Free Open-Air Concert: Symphonic Celebration @ Sidney Myer Music Bowl
Details
Let’s enjoy one of Melbourne’s classic summer traditions — the Sidney Myer Free Concert: Symphonic Celebration.
This is a large-scale, open-air orchestral performance in the beautiful surrounds of the Sidney Myer Music Bowl. It’s completely free, no tickets required, and perfect for a relaxed social evening with live music.
Bring a picnic rug if you like, come solo or with friends, and enjoy great music without any pressure or formality. This meetup is about sharing the experience together, not sitting in silence pretending we’re experts.
