Australian Classics and Tributes on Show in 2026
Wyndham City launches the 2026 Morning Melodies program at the Encore Events Centre, bringing back one of the municipality’s most popular entertainment traditions. The program offers affordable live shows on the second Tuesday of every month from 11am to 12pm, with doors opening at 10.30am and morning tea included in the $15 ticket.
Each month features a new musical theme, taking audiences through a variety of genres and performances. Cr Mia Shaw said: “The Morning Melodies program continues to play an important role bringing people together to enjoy musical shows and connecting the community.”
“Hosted at Encore Events Centre in Hoppers Crossing, Morning Melodies is one of Wyndham’s most popular performing arts events offering high-quality live entertainment at an affordable price for residents and visitors alike,” said Cr Shaw.
“The 2026 program will feature an exciting mix of classic hits, cabaret and musical tributes, featuring some of Australia’s finest touring acts and local talent.”
“From toe-tapping swing and rock ‘n’ roll favourites to heartfelt ballads and nostalgic performances – whatever your taste in music – there is something for everyone!”
“Morning Melodies isn’t just about great music and entertainment, it’s a chance for residents to enjoy performances close to home, share morning tea with friends, and be part of Wyndham’s vibrant creative culture. We’re proud to continue this much-loved tradition in 2026,” said Cr Shaw.
