Federated Bells bells

Updated schedule for Now or Never: 21 to 31 August 2025

For the duration of the Now or Never Festival from 21 to 31 August, the Federation Bells will feature a new commissioned work in our daily Bells sessions.

'For Those In Peril // Hold Back The Night' is a gorgeous site-specific work by Naarm-based ambient duo Namazu.

Hear the audio installation version of the work during our daily bells sessions (9 to 10am, 12.30pm to 1.30pm and 5pm to 6pm) from 21 to 31 August, then come to see the live premiere / LP launch of the full band work at 8pm on Friday 29 August at the Federation Bells site.
