Club 8

A night of hybrid sounds and borderless energy.

乒乒乓乓 pin-pin-piàng-piàng pulls together the most innovative club artists from across the Asia-Pacific to create a genre-fluid experience steeped in Naarm/Melbourne’s iconic rave culture.

It’s chaotic, cathartic and joyfully communal – where boundaries blur, and high-energy performances ignite an ever-evolving atmosphere.

乒乒乓乓 pin-pin-piàng-piàng is your portal to an unfiltered rave experience. Lose yourself in this messy and beautifully unpredictable collision of music, dance and art.

This event is strictly 18+
