++ THE COSMIC SALOON

The annual Interplanetary Symposium is happening relatively close to home this year! On Neptune's moon Triton, only about 4.338 billion km away. It's so so near to Earth that we've managed to construct a portal there and you're all invited!

Come behold the galaxy's finest minds presenting conference papers, the most captivating performers this side of the Andromeda and playfully mind-bending live/electronica acts who'll explain why Triton is known as “the Ibiza of the Milky Way.”

Even better, it turns out the Icy moon Triton is basically a mix of the Playground stage at Rainbow Serpent and the connected community DIY theatrical events organised by Harley Hefford, soon to depart planet Australia! What a crazy coincidence!

++ YOUR ROLE

Decide upon your home planet, real or fictional, and come meet wonderful beings from all across the universe. The time is ripe to leave the land of Earth for an evening, blast into the stratosphere in a spaceship of old and new friends & indulge in some magic.

++ OUR DESTINATION

Despite its “tenuous nitrogen atmosphere," the freezing ice moon Triton remains one of the hottest party destinations in the solar system. On 24th May, 2024, a direct portal shall open up from 24 Moons, Northcote, straight to Neptune’s largest moon.
