Hosted by Soul Hub, this free, family-friendly live music series is all about slowing down, soaking up the summer evenings, and enjoying great local music together.
Since 2012, Friday Chill has been our way of saying thank you to the Newcastle community for supporting the work of Soul Hub. What started as a simple idea has become a much-loved summer tradition, bringing neighbours, friends, and visitors together in the heart of the city.
Each Friday evening, 6:30pm – 8:30pm, Pacific Park in Newcastle East comes alive with easy-listening performances from talented local artists. Bring a picnic rug or chair, pack some snacks, and settle in for a relaxed couple of hours of music under the summer sky. Friday Chill is BYO-alcohol and designed for all ages.
The 2026 Friday Chill season runs every Friday from 9 January to 27 March 2026.
So, gather your family and friends and come chill with us this summer. We’d love to see you there.
