Time Out says

Set in the Kings Domain Gardens, Sidney Myer Music Bowl is a popular summertime venue that hosts everything from Piknic Électronik to Carols by Candlelight, as well as free summertime concerts. The centrepiece of the gardens is a live music hub for some of Melbourne's best summer events, and has featured headline gigs from some of the world's biggest music acts.

Over 2,000 seats are available under the sweeping canopy, but the vast grass lawn leading down to the main amphitheatre can extend that capacity to over 10,000 punters. As Melbourne's largest outdoor performance space, it has been a warm weather mainstay since 1959.

What’s on

Loyle Carner

We're waving, not drowning over the news the British hip-hop artist and rapper Loyle Carner is bringing his introspective rhymes and silkily smooth beats Down Under. Set to perform at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl as part of his Hopefully! tour, Carner will take to the stage on December 6.  After first gaining recognition with his debut album Yesterday's Gone in 2017, the South London MC has cemented himself as a leading voice in the UK rap scene with his confessional, poetic and languorous rapping style. Since then, Carner has performed on stages worldwide and collaborated with everyone from Tom Misch and Madlib to Jordan Rakei.  A mix of hip-hop and rap with influences from jazz, soul and grime, Carner’s albums often tap into family, friendship and grief, seen clearly in hit songs like 'Dear Jean' and 'Loose Ends' with Jorja Smith. His brand new album hopefully! will drop on June 20, featuring 'All I Need' and 'In My Mind'. This new release is set to be a life-affirming deep dive on fatherhood, childhood and alternative music – with Carner stepping out of his comfort zone to sing, produce and form the band of his dreams.    Tickets are on sale now, and you can get them here.
