Grab your picnic basket, pack your pet rock and get ready to dance with the elephants. Emma Memma is bringing her much-loved Jungle Picnic album to life on stage at Gippsland Performing Arts Centre on 29 September 2026.
The Jungle Picnic Tour is the next chapter in Emma Memma's live performance journey, inspired by her new album of the same name. Known for weaving Auslan sign language naturally into every performance, Emma Memma has built a following among young children and families who value joyful, inclusive entertainment.
Families can expect energetic dance routines, deliciously catchy singalong songs and imaginative storytelling that celebrates outdoor adventure and shared play. An Auslan interpreter stands side-of-stage throughout the show, and Emma Memma and Elvin Melvin sign during the performance itself, so sign language feels like a natural part of the experience rather than an afterthought.
For Latrobe City families, this is a chance to experience a nationally touring children's show right here in Traralgon, at a venue that champions accessible and inclusive arts for the whole community. Events like this remind local families that world-class children's entertainment is available close to home.
The show starts at 10am on Tuesday 29 September 2026 at the Gippsland Performing Arts Centre, 32 Kay Street, Traralgon. Tickets are $42.50, with babies under 12 months free on the knee. Book at the link above or call (03) 5176 3333. Families needing seating with a clear view of the interpreter are encouraged to contact the Emma Memma team at [email protected] ahead of time.
