Sat, 21 Nov, 12:00 am ACDT

Adelaide · Check price with organiser

Following a string of sold-out shows across Australia, Khaled Khalafalla returns with a new show that evolves to meet the moment. With every performance, Khaled has built a following of people who've left his shows laughing, gasping, and finally seeing their own unspoken thoughts woven into the stories on stage.. It's honest. It's (mostly) clean. It's hilarious. You'll laugh a lot. But more importantly, you'll leave thinking about it on the way home. After selling out theatres around the country, tickets are expected to sell quickly. Early booking is recommended.

Symphony Series 8 – Completely Unfinished

Sat, 21 Nov, 12:00 am ACDT

Adelaide · From $30

Grand symphonies, bold new voices, and the electrifying sound of live orchestral music. Some of the greatest music was never completed. Both Schubert and Mahler died before they finished their final symphonies and yet neither work sounds incomplete. There is nothing short-changed about the two movements that Schubert must have realised were perfect as they stood. And Deryck Cooke's performing version of Mahler's Tenth Symphony allows us to hear this piece as the composer left it. A fragile, autobiographical journey that charts a path through longing and grief towards a conclusion of uplifting acceptance, the truth of which can only come through love. With thanks to the visionary patrons of ASO's Chief Conductor: Lang Family Foundation, Nunn Dimos Foundation, Joan Lyons and Diana McLaurin.

Upon formally introducing himself in 2019, Dermot quietly made history when his first proper release, Without Fear, became the best-selling debut album in Ireland. He reached Platinum status in 12 countries and gathered nearly 5 billion total streams. His follow-ups include the acclaimed sophomore album Sonder and the introspective EP "I've told the trees everything" Dermot has shared the stage with some of his finest contemporaries, including Noah Kahan and Zach Bryan. His incredible journey has taken him from busking on the streets of Ireland to playing stadiums around the world, forging a deep, emotional connection with audiences.

Richard Tognetti directs the Australian Chamber Orchestra in a thrilling season finale featuring Beethoven's epic and transportive Sixth Symphony. To see Richard Tognetti and the Australian Chamber Orchestra perform Beethoven is to experience a 'magnificent unanimity'* of vision, drama and expressive force. In this majestic and uplifting finale to the ACO 2026 National Concert Season, Richard and an expanded ACO perform an all-Beethoven program that takes audiences on a journey through creation and wonder, beginning with the dramatic Coriolan Overture before culminating in the master craftsman's Pastoral Symphony.
