Just one week after wrapping its successful third edition, Live at the Gardens has revealed the diverse lineup for its upcoming fourth season.
Across two weekends in March, Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens’ Observatory Precinct will be transformed once again into an open-air venue.
New Zealand singer-songwriter Marlon Williams will open the fourth season on March 6th, backed by Emma Donovan and Kee’ahn.
The following night, it’s Thelma Plum and Sons of the East’s turn, joined by special guest Jem Cassar-Daley.
Electronic music dominates on March 8th and March 13th thanks to Leftfield, Cut Copy, and some special guests, before Aussie hip-hop icons Bliss n Eso bring the season to an end on March 15th.
