Led by gothic glamazon Moira Finucane, The FUTURE. JOY. CLUB. features the very best of Australia’s exquisite and explosive underground stars. Together, Finucane & Smith and Sofitel Melbourne On Collins have created a nightclub at the Paris end of Collins Street that you’ll never want to leave.

The hauntingly beautiful voices of indie pop star Sophie Koh, Ngarluma jazz blues legend Lois Olney and Melbourne’s own transcendent songstress Mama Alto will envelop the club. Glittering boylesque classically trained Indian dancer Govind Pillai, lightning rod burlesque artist Jazida, eye popping club star Iva Rosebud and Cameroon/Parisian hip hop star Simon Abbe will lay their talents bare within velvety surrounds.
