The Gig Rig is an all-terrain, custom built, mobile sound and vision studio equipped to host a broad range of activities including sound recording, song writing, media and podcasting activity as well as technical support for live performance.
Fitted out with a comprehensive suite of technical gear, the Gig Rig is ready to roll out workshop programs and pop-up engagement activities at schools and communities, in metro, regional and remote South Australia.
Gig Rig is available for hire for your next party, function or event. We can provide teaching artists, performing artists, studio technicians or DJs.
The Gig Rig was donated to Carclew by CMV Foundation.
Gig Rig Tracks – Ceduna | Jan 2026
During the January school holidays, Carclew is bringing our Gig Rig to Ceduna.
As part of our Gig Rig Tracks program, we will be offering contemporary dance workshops for young Aboriginal students, led by a stellar line-up of artists. These workshops provide a supportive and creative space for young people to explore movement, storytelling and self-expression through dance.
Working closely with the artists, participants will create their own original dance pieces. Selected participants will then be invited to travel to Adelaide to perform their work at Carclew’s First Nations Blak Nite in 2026, held at Carclew.
This program celebrates First Nations voices, creativity and cultural expression, while creating pathways for young people to share their work on a larger stage.
The workshops are offered as part of the Gig Rig Tracks program, funded through the Office for the Arts Indigenous Languages and Arts funding program.
