24.01.2022 The ongoing lack of certainty with regards borders opening due to Covid-19 means The Exploited will not be able to perform in Australia in Feb 2021. DRW and the band are working towards establishing new dates but with similar issues affecting venues worldwide, this is a slow process. Be assured the band are super-keen to visit Australia and play for us all. Please hang on to your tickets as these shows are certain to sell out, and we will let you know the new dates as soon as we have them.

24.01.2022 For The Love Of Purple pays tribute to Deep Purple by capturing the raw energy of one of their live shows in every detail with first rate musicianship from some of Australia’s finest musicians featuring current and former members of The Radiators, Mental As Anything, Richard Clapton, Dee Minor & The Dischords.

We will advise rescheduled dates asap and in the meantime ask ticketholders to retain their ticket which will be valid for the new date(s). Should you wish a refund of course that is available to you here [email protected]
