Live At The Lunchbox

Live At The Lunchbox, the weekly live music event at Newcastle Campus, is back for another year!!

Now in its 6th year, this event is run by the Hunter TAFE Music Department and supported by the Student Association. Performers from the Music courses, Theatre courses, and outside TAFE perform for your enjoyment every monday of semester from 12pm to 1pm in the courtyard outside the Bookshop at Newcastle Campus. 

In addition to nationally recognised Newcastle-based artists such as Bob Corbett and Adam Miller, the event has featured a number of artists such as Benjalu, Kaylah Anne, and Jason Lowe while they were students before they went on to bigger and better things.

Head on down at lunchtime on Mondays to check it out. We've already heard a lot of good stuff from this year's batch of students so you just might hear something you like.
