Next Seven Days

August 26 - September 1

Angus and Julia Stone pop into the Enmore for three sold-out shows while David Helfgott plays a one-off show at City Recital Hall Saturday night. Ash Grunwald is at the UNSW Roundhouse Wednesday, and popular Melbourne outfit The Cat Empire is at the Horden Sunday.

Swan Lake on Ice dazzles at the Lyric Theatre from Friday for a strictly limited season, while Driving Miss Daisy begins at Parramatta Riverside Theatres - you can win tickets here. Bangarra Dance Theatre's Of Earth & Sky closes Sunday at the Opera House.

The annual Fifties Fair is on at Rose Sidler House this Sunday with music, dance, food and displays for all the family.

Tahir is at the Comedy Store, and those bosom-buddies Busting Out start their Sydney tour at Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith.

Summer can't be far away with the spate of new tours being announced - everyone from U2 to Robin Williams will be landing on our shores so check out our Big Shows listing below to see what takes your fancy.

Have fun out there...
