What We Do

The average force of gravity near earth’s surface, where culture and people collide.

At Nine Point Eight, we harness the gravitational pull of creativity to craft exceptional cultural experiences that unite people from all walks of life. As a registered charity, we are committed to the profound sociocultural and economic impact of live events.

Our flagship venue, Drumsheds, exemplifies this mission by transforming an unconventional space into a vibrant cultural epicenter. Through Drumsheds, we provide a dynamic platform for local artists and ensure that music, art, and culture are accessible to everyone.

We welcome inquiries from individuals and organizations interested in utilizing the space, collaborating with us, or engaging with our community programs, including local community groups and charities. Your involvement helps us enrich our cultural landscape and foster a thriving, inclusive environment.
