Summer in the Domain Back on the Agenda

After a brief postponement, Summer in the Domain is back and ready to keep those good vibes rolling through March. This COVID-safe outdoor concert series staged in Sydney’s Domain has an impressive lineup, with Vera Blue, Ball Park Music, Mallrat, Thelma Plum, Hayden James, and Client Liaison all scheduled to appear. Add in bars and food markets and you’ve got a recipe for a great night out.

Music lovers and their concert crew will enjoy their very own picnic table (pod) on the grass, so you won’t need to worry about others encroaching on your space. Four and six-person pods are available for each show.

“The Domain has a rich history of hosting events and celebrations and we want to continue to host experiences that create lifelong memories and contribute to the health and wellbeing of our communities,” said Denise Ora, the chief executive of the Botanic Gardens Greater Sydney. “As an organisation we have grown accustomed to having a very robust program of festivals and iconic events so I can wholeheartedly say that everyone at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney and Domain are excited to help activate the CBD with the Summer in the Domain concert series as we emerge from the impacts of this pandemic and safely come together in Sydney’s public spaces.”

Each show is limited to 2000 ticketholders to keep things COVID-safe, so don’t hesitate when tickets for the following shows go on sale at midday on February 15 through Moshtix.

18 March 2021 – Ball Park Music and Thelma Plum
19 March 2021 – Hayden James, Mallrat, and Sycco
20 March 2021 – Client Liaison, Confidence Man, and Touch Sensitive

Mallrat On the Up

She might be just 19, but already emerging MC Mallrat has achieved more in her career than many people twice her age. Her debut EP Univited clocked up 14 million streams, she’s played every Aussie festival that matters including Splendour, Falls, Beyond the Valley, and Come Together, and she’s supported heavy hitters like Post Malone, Peking Duk, and the man who inspired her to make her own music, Allday.

As the story goes, the talented Brisbane teen was so inspired by an Allday concert that she headed home and started to make her own music. She connected with Allday’s producer and collaborator Tigerilla, recorded her debut EP, and the rest is history.

The hype around Mallrat shows no signs of slowing down either. She’s currently wowing crowds on her sold out all ages tour promoting her new single “Better,” which already has more than two million streams. With youth on her side, expect even bigger things from Mallrat.
