Live local music, the Australian Open and a cold one. If you're a tennis fan, this is the summer trifecta — and Canadian Club is giving Australia's biggest fortnight of tennis a truly epic start from its Birrarung Marr hilltop perch. The Jungle Giants are taking over the Canadian Club Racquet Club sound system with an exclusive DJ set in the ultimate day-one-of-tournament party hosted by Abbie Chatfield. One of the most fun live acts touring right now, they'll be fresh off the back of a massive regional tour and a guaranteed good time. Supporting sets by Brooke Evers, one of the hottest DJs in Australia at the moment, and local indie dance duo Nite Theory will kick off party proceedings in the afternoon. We recommend registering early since this is a line up that promises to go off. Match the blue carpet and don your best blue and white threads. If you really want to get into the tournament spirit, tennis couture is welcome—and encouraged. You'll also have the chance to get up close and personal with the official AO trophies, with the silverware making guest appearances at the event throughout the night. This is the ultimate Sunday sesh, with the party kicking off at 5pm on Sunday, January 12. Headliners The Jungle Giants (DJ set) will play from 7.30pm, with supporting acts Nite Theory and Brooke Evers on at approximately 4pm and 6.30pm, respectively. Canadian Club's Australian Open launch party might wrap at the end of the first day of play, but the good times at the Canadian Club Racquet Club will rally on. Well over a decade into their partnership with the Australian Open, Canadian Club knows exactly how to put on a good time at the tennis. Head to the Canadian Club Racquet Club throughout the Australian Open for refreshing drinks and good times — no tennis ticket needed.
