Nocturnal

Nocturnal Friday 1 September: featuring Kllo, Planéte and Pjenné

Melbourne's biggest indoor festival Nocturnal shakes off winter and jumps into spring with a killer September line-up featuring live music from local electronic artists Kllo, Planéte and Pjenné.

As well as access to our permanent galleries, this September we’re taking it one step further delving into the world of insects via Bug Lab: Little Bugs, Super Powers, a touring exhibition brought to you by New Zealand’s Te Papa and Weta Workshop. Experience this immersive and interactive exhibition for only $10 at Nocturnal!

Museums Victoria's Conservators, Curators and Collection Store Managers are also getting on board for September’s event with special Melbourne Fashion Week themed pop-up talks and back of house collections displays.

First Friday of every Month

More than just a party, Nocturnal is the transformation of the museum into an adult playground. Enjoy a rotating list of the latest bands and DJs performing live in the museum, with open bars, great food, roving entertainment, discussions with museum experts and learning experiences across collections, cultures and time.
