ALWAYS LIVE Victorian Vibes Ballarat

ALWAYS LIVE is back and she's going on a road trip!

Brand new regional live music series Victorian Vibes will kick off right here in Ballarat next Saturday 18 April from 11am-6pm.

Drumroll please! The Ballarat line-up includes Dan Sultan, Blusher and Hope D, with free pop-up sets in brilliantly unexpected locations across the Ballarat CBD.

Exact locations will be announced in the lead-up to the gigs. Stay tuned to ALWAYS LIVE’s official channels or register via Eventbrite for the latest updates.

Ballarat's hospo scene is rolling out the red carpet with some great deals for Saturday: take a little scroll for the list below!

Victorian Vibes comes off the back of last summer's Melbourne Vibes, which saw the likes of Jimmy Barnes, The Teskey Brothers, Guy Sebastian, Mallrat and Adalita light up streets and laneways across the Melbourne CBD.

Following the Ballarat gigs, the pop-up series will hit the road, landing in a new regional Victorian town every second weekend through to late June.

Supported by the Victorian Government through Visit Victoria, Victorian Vibes forms part of ALWAYS LIVE’s broader mission to strengthen Victoria’s music ecosystem and deliver live music experiences that reflect the full identity of the state, reinforcing its position as Australia’s live music capital.
