2026 programs

MUA Festival

(THEATRE, MUSIC, DANCE AND CULTURAL ARTS)

To celebrate 10 years of PICAA we are showcasing our talented artists with a 2-show season! In February, we will partner with Bowery Theatre and Creative Brimbank to bring audiences an array of musical, cultural and theatrical works that highlight the brilliant minds of the creatives behind PICAA. MUA is directed by our Head of Theatre Fulisia Asalemo Tofete and features old and new words from our PICAA creatives.

Spirit of Pasefika

(MUSIC, DANCE AND CULTURAL ARTS)

Every year we call-out to Pasefika community members, families, youth and children to join us in showcasing Pasefika cultural arts to the wider Melbourne community. The City of Melbourne’s Moomba Festival is an opportunity to proudly represent our individual island nations and PICAA has been reppin’ Pasefika at Moomba since 2017.

If you’re keen to represent your Pasefika culture in March 2026, then register here. This is a great opportunity for families to get involved in a one-day event with community.

Pasefika Vitoria Choir

(MUSIC)

Led by Dr. Rita Seumanutafa-Palala and Lelili’o Steve Tafea, we rehearse on Sunday evenings in the western suburbs of Melbourne. We invite committed and passionate singers to join us as we learn to read music notation and develop choral singing technique and sound. We offer a busy year of performances and music opportunities to promote Pasefika music so if you can commit to weekly rehearsals and our performance schedule, then contact us for more info. Rehearsals start in mid-January 2026.
