Howey Place
The Capitol - RMIT

Music, art, food and reality-rifting lasers - it's all alley-bound and ready to be found at Night Trade.

Night Trade is back.

Saeborg, Mummy's Plastic, Nyege Nyege, Shohei Fujimoto + more to be announced

A miscellanea of RISING mischief where you can sample the festival for free.

It's returning to the Capitol Arcade, ready to pulse down Howey Place and the surrounding laneways.

Head here for a drink at the microbars, a feed at the local eateries or grab the mic for a bout of karaoke with Mummy's Plastic. Look out for Saeborg. The Tokyo-based artist is half human, half toy, in an adorable latex costume. She's calling on her Saedog for Night Trade. Tongue out. Paws wobbling. Nyege Nyege Collective, seminal promoters of African electronic music. They're over from Kampala, Uganda to fill the space with afro-galactic expression.

Get your perception bent upstairs in the Capitol Theatre. We're directly jacking into the universal consciousness with Shohei Fujimoto's intangible #form. The theatre's ceiling already looks like it's been hatched from an expressionistic sci-fi. Fujimoto is transforming this whole place into an ocean of lasers that blurs the lines between the real and out-of-reach.

There's plenty more to be announced. But for now, just know, whether you're in for a sojourn or the full so-journey, Night Trade is here.

Its neon heart throbs for you.
