Roadshow NT 2026

About

After the success of Roadshow NT 2025,  Artback NT is proud to announce Roadshow NT is coming to Nhulunbuy / Gove this year – bringing music, spoken word, and workshops to the community in May 2026.

The line-up will feature spoken word artists Melanie Mununggurr and Laurie May, delivering workshops to local schools and performing at the evening show on 8 May 2026.

Garramilla / Darwin-based garage band TANG will also perform on 8 May, and community workshops are planned for 9 May. More details coming soon.

Designed to connect communities with exceptional independent artists, Roadshow NT showcases the power and diversity of the Territory’s performing arts scene, bringing bold, funny, moving and unforgettable stories to regional and remote audiences.

“Roadshow NT is about shining a spotlight on the creative energy that defines the NT,” says Artback NT’s Performing Arts Manager. “We’re thrilled to take some of the Territory’s best performers on the road and strengthen the connections between artists and communities.”

With thanks to venue partner Gove Arts Theatre.

This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
