Note: the following events are listed in start date order
Gasworks Arts Park has been a prominent Midsumma venue for four years,
with an incredible variety of performance, visual art and community
events every year over the course of the festival. Situated in Albert
Park and only a 15 minute tram ride from the city, with two theatre
spaces, two gallery spaces and four hectares of parkland, there's ample
opportunity for anything from dance, cabaret, drama, and spoken word to
exhibitions, parties and conference-style events. For 2010 we have
space in a Gasworks-produced program of events open for negotiation, as
well as availability for straight hire of our venues that are able to
accommodate potential season limitations due to our own programming. We
are always open to a broad range of styles, although past seasons have
featured strong transgender, lesbian and ethnically diverse
programming, and the odd bit of music theatre to round it out!

The Gasworks Theatre is available for single events or limited
performance seasons, seating up to 220 in a flexible general admission
space that combines raked rows and cabaret seating.
Our intimate Studio Theatre can accommodate up to 70 patrons in flat
rows of moveable general admission seating, although risers can be
brought in to form a raked bank.

Visual artists may also be interested in either the Angela Robarts-Bird
Gallery, which is a dedicated gallery space featuring white walls and
polished floorboards, or the Theatre Foyer, which is a high-traffic,
multi-purpose space with three out of four walls dedicated to
exhibition space. Both spaces can also accommodate smaller events and
functions depending on requirements.
