Relaxed Performance

Tuesday 11 August 2026, 10.30am & 12pm

Melbourne Recital Centre

Promoting a casual approach to sound and movement, the Melbourne Recital Centre's series of Relaxed Performances provides the same exceptional artists, in an environment specifically suited for audiences with sensory sensitivities, using altered lighting, more in-depth musical explanations and accompanying access resources.

This year with day-time performances running for 45 minutes, this series is also perfect for young families. Children will be free to wriggle if they need or leave the Primrose Potter Salon and move to a designated quiet area in the Ground Floor Foyer.

Program TBC
