Welcome to Live at The Open House - a run of handpicked, intimate gigs that puts audiences right up close to the music.
With a lineup that spans GRAMMY award-winners, folk icons and everything from world and folk to blues, country, jazz, reggae and more, the series celebrates Australian and international artists, their stories, and those magic, unrepeatable moments that can only happen in a small room.
Connection isn’t a possibility. It’s the point. This is live music as it’s meant to be felt.
Real gigs. Real artists. Family-friendly hours.
The Early Show brings top local and touring artists to The Open House for a series of all-ages shows - the perfect blend of good tunes, good vibes, and family-friendly timing.
We know it’s hard for parents to get out to night‑time shows, so we’re making it easier.
Catch a great set, grab a snack and dance it out with your little legends - all before bedtime.
Live music, up close
Designed for nights where the room matters as much as the music.
Warm acoustics, close attention, a feeling that builds as the night goes on. This is a space where performances breathe, and the energy in the room becomes part of the story.
You’ll find Live at The Open House tucked inside Geelong Arts Centre.
Live at The Open House doesn’t happen every night — but when it does, it’s worth knowing about.
