WHAT'S ON
AT WADAMBUK
At Wadambuk St Andrews Community Centre, we host a wide range of events designed to bring the community together and celebrate creativity, culture, and connection. From live music nights to community festivals, there’s always something happening or in the works at the Centre.
One of our most popular events is Friday Night Live @ St Andrews, where we showcase top-tier professional performers from Melbourne, bringing the best of the city’s vibrant music scene to our local community. We’re also passionate about nurturing homegrown talent, with local artists regularly taking the stage as support acts. We also host the St Andrews Festival, a celebration of local culture, art, food, and community spirit, with activities for all ages and interests.
Check out the calendar below as well as our courses & classes page, and join us for fun and engaging experiences at the heart of St Andrews!

About the experience
The Immersive Bushfire Experience is a multi-sensory workshop where you will, in a safe space, watch as a normal day develops into one where it is too late to leave and a bushfire is upon you. As you listen to a narrative, the day worsens. You will experience the sound of the fire, the wind, smoke, smell, darkness, and confusion.
Threat, stress and heightened arousal reduces the ability to function effectively. This can lead to fight, flight or freeze reactions and poor, even life-threatening decisions can be the result.
Following the Virtual Reality experience there will be an opportunity for you to come back to reality and to discuss as a group what you have experienced, how you feel and how it has changed your approach to bushfire planning.
Please note that photos and videos will be taken before, during and after the workshop. Immersive Bushfire Experience Inc wishes to video you to create:
-
Resources that support community hosts to recruit participants. Feedback from the 2025 workshops indicated that community hosts found it difficult to describe the workshop to people who hadn't yet attended. Videos will help recruit more participants.
-
Materials that will be used to seek financial investment partners. Currently Immersive Bushfire Experience Inc relies on donations. To continue to offer workshops to community groups without charge, they will be seeking government, philanthropic and research investment to help deliver more workshops beyond 2026.
If you have any concerns about being photographed or videoed, please consider whether this workshop is right for you.

FREE COMMUNITY TRIVIA
What a night!
Our first-ever Community Trivia Night was a huge success – and loads of fun! The competition was fierce with 8 tables battling it out for the inaugural trophy and the title of Wadambuk Trivia Champions. Congratulations to this year’s winners, The Wild Dogs!
A massive thank you to A Local Baker and A Boy Named Sue for their generous prize donations – we’re so lucky to have such amazing local businesses, so be sure to support them.
The night was full of laughs, friendly rivalry, and community spirit – and yes, we’ll definitely be doing it again!
