Want the best seats at Clocktower next year? Here’s how to get early bird access

Words by staff writer

Clocktower Centre is offering early bird access to its 2026 season for a limited period of time, and considering what's in store, you'll want to move fast.

The Moonee Ponds venue has stacked its calendar with heavyweights like Casey Donovan, Tim Freedman and Vika & Linda.

The powerhouse lineup kicks off in February with Melbourne Chamber Orchestra and guitar virtuoso Slava Grigoryan performing a world premiere composition. By March, stage veteran Rachael Beck arrives with In Their Own Words, weaving together stories from 20 trailblazing Australian women including Ita Buttrose and Marcia Langton, set to music from Missy Higgins and Kate Miller-Heidke.

Contemporary circus outfit Na Djinang Circus brings Of The Land On Which We Meet to the venue in April, exploring three distinct relationships to Country through physically demanding performance. Theatre Works follows in May with Tom Holloway’s Beyond the Neck, examining how a community lives with collective trauma.

Vika & Linda arrive in September fresh off releasing a new album, performing songs and stories from their 35-year career spanning The Black Sorrows, eight studio albums and collaborations with Paul Kelly. The family season includes Teeny Tiny Stevies, beloved character Spot brought to life on stage, and The Box Show transforming household junk into musical instruments.
