As day slowly unfolds the Canoe Pool hosts AT SEA, a free 30‑minute dance work by Catapult Dance Choreographic Hub. Performed at the water’s edge, dancers move with tide, wind and sand to an original score by Zackari Watt. Each performance is shaped by place and inspired by Izabela Pluta’s large scale floating artwork.

Australian electronic music pioneers Hermitude join forces with Newcastle-based DJ and Ode Label founder, Claire O'Brien for an audio sensory experience at the water's edge. A pairing that's never happened before and may not happen again.

Part comedy, part meditation on a changing Australia, TRUCK DRIVER is the latest genre-defying work from Jonny Hawkins and Nell Ranney fresh from its world premiere at the Sydney Opera House. Across one epic haul from cattle country to Uluru, the audience rides shotgun as Bev, expertly played by Hawkins, swings between rage and revelation, dirty jokes and devastating confessions. Belt up and strap in. And please, keep an eye out for roos.

Presented by Newcastle Art Gallery, Muse is first major survey of globally recognised and Newcastle-based artist Angela Tiatia.
