VENUE UPDATE
Holden Street Theatres will be cancelling all performances scheduled in The Studio and The Arch until further notice while we undertake works within these spaces.
We know this will be disappointing for our artists and audiences, and we thank everyone for their patience and understanding while this work is completed.
Sunday Versed will return from Sunday 18 October, and we look forward to welcoming our poets, readers and audiences back to Holden Street.
And while The Studio and The Arch take a short break, we certainly won’t be sitting still.
Behind the scenes, we’ll be busy making Holden Street even better and preparing for a very big 2027.
Holden Street Theatres will be fully operational for Adelaide Fringe 2027, with an already incredible Fringe program beginning to take shape.
The Holden Street Theatres Inc. 2027 in-house season has some great surprises in store, and we’ll also be launching our new music program as soon as we can.
So, while things may be a little quieter on our stages for the moment, there is plenty happening behind the scenes — and a great deal to look forward to.
We’ll keep you updated as the works progress and can’t wait to share what’s coming next.

ADELAIDE MUSIC. UP CLOSE.
There is extraordinary music being made in South Australia, and we want more people hearing it.
HOLDEN ST LIVE creates another stage for local artists to perform, experiment, connect with new audiences and be heard.
It’s another reason to come through the Holden Street doors — not just for theatre, but for music, conversation, nightlife and that unmistakable Holden Street atmosphere.

We acknowledge the Kaurna people as the traditional custodians of the Adelaide region in which Holden Street Theatres is located, and we recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to all Elders past, present and emerging and we acknowledge that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.
