Showcase Victoria Format

format
Showcase Victoria is an annual event connecting artists and producers with venues and audiences through a program of talks, networking opportunities and tour-ready production profiles. Proudly presented by the Victorian Association of Performing Arts Centres (VAPAC) and Regional Arts Victoria with support from Creative Victoria, Showcase Victoria is Australia’s leading state-based performing arts market playing a key role in facilitating touring.
What’s new for Showcase 2022?
Held on 10 May 2022 at Darebin Arts Centre, things will look a little different for this iteration of Showcase Victoria. The last two years have been extremely disruptive for programmers and audiences, and with many shows being rescheduled into 2022 and 2023, programming outcomes will be limited from this year’s event. Instead, this new one-day event will focus on Reconnection rather than touring as the main driver.
Next years event is aimed at encouraging presenters, artists and producers to use the day as an opportunity to meet, re-engage and re-connect. Selected artists and producers will receive an online performance profile featured on the Showcase Victoria website for 2022 which will serve as an alternative to the traditional pitching model, and facilitated networking with presenters will provide an opportunity for deeper discussions about your work.
Applications for Showcase Victoria 2022 have now closed.
