Live music is the heartbeat of Victoria and for its third iteration in 2024, ALWAYS LIVE invites everyone to experience the best of homegrown and international live contemporary music.

From iconic band rooms to festivals in breathtaking regional locations and world class arenas which attract the biggest names in music, ALWAYS LIVE comes to life in the venues that have helped Victoria earn its reputation as the live music capital of Australia.

The 2024 program features stadium shows, intimate performances, free and family events, artist showcases, pop-up performances and a whole lot more. Whether you love discovering grass roots artists, are a passionate music fan, or simply enjoy what live music and major events have to offer, ALWAYS LIVE is curated for everyone, everywhere. Memorable Music Moments are made each year with ALWAYS LIVE, only in Victoria.

ALWAYS LIVE is proud to once again be raising funds for charity partner Support Act. This means that $1 from each participating event ticket sold will be going directly to Support Act and the amazing work they do supporting musicians, managers, crew and music workers.

This event is part of ALWAYS LIVE 2024, a 17-day state-wide celebration of contemporary live music supported by the Victorian Government through Visit Victoria. 

Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
