EVENTS
SALON
SALON is Arts on Tour’s key annual industry event that builds relationships between NSW and ACT artists, producers and presenters, creating opportunities for touring and partnerships.
We’re thrilled to announce that in 2025 we will partner with Seymour Centre in Sydney to present Salon in the York Theatre on Wednesday 18 June. This is a full-day event followed by networking drinks. Program information and times will be coming soon.
Salon 2024 was supported by The Pavilion Performing Arts Centre, Sutherland.
Artists and producers can submit an EOI to pitch their work at the half-day event, and to be included in the Salon booklet, circulated to venues and presenters to assist them in finding new work.
Selected artists and producers will be given the opportunity to deliver a short pitch about their work, its creative vision, viability for touring and unique offering to regional audiences. Independent artists who aren’t selected to pitch can still attend the event free-of-charge.
Alongside artists and producers, selected venue presenters will pitch their organisation: their programming aspirations and approach, their audiences, capacity and partnership opportunities. Salon also includes a networking session - where all attendees will have the opportunity to meet and discuss their work and programming.
HOW TO get involved
EOIs for 2025 are now open and close on Thursday 20 March at 11:59pm. Please see the Guidelines and a preview of the EOI form below. When ready, submit your EOI here.
An online information session for EOIs will be held via Zoom on Thursday 27 February at 6pm. Register to attend here.

“Salon is a critical marketplace for producers and presenters to find each other and make great experiences happen. It would be impossible to be fully across the vast range of excellent artists making work across the state without this event.”
