Darebins & Dragons (D&D) - Fuse Festival Darebin 2026

As part of the Darebin FUSE Festival 2026, Darebins & Dragons (D&D) hosted as a live One Belt, One Rage event, audiences can expect an alternate presentation of multicultural music, which embraces the darker, experimental, and noisier sounds from local Darebin-based multicultural and linguistically diverse communities. The evening will include local doom-folk witches Blood of a Pomegranate and Miras, and two exciting collaborative sets, one as Korgistan Workers Party and Jahan Xanlü, and another with neko.ea and a mystery guest.

All wrapped around this dark fantasy embrace is hosted by blak-run Darebin space ShopFront740, who have been at the forefront of bringing exciting and experimental art to Darebin. Audiences can reflect on the emotional, historical, spiritual, and political threads that connect disparate traditions of melancholic and transcendent music across cultures.

This event will be taking place on land stolen from the Wurundjeri people.
