VENUE: Theatrette - National Library of Australia - Parkes Place W, Canberra
After years of friendship and a shared obsession with architecture and design, Kevin McCloud and Tim Ross are taking their banter and big ideas on the road - and, true to form, they’re doing it in some very interesting places.
From a Brutalist theatre to a reimagined heritage-listed church and one of Australia’s most loved public buildings, Live in Interesting Places brings together two great talkers and thinkers for an evening of stories, laughter, and design-fuelled inspiration.
It’s the first time they’ve shared a stage since their two sold-out shows at the Sydney Opera House in 2019, a collaboration rekindled with the release of their hit podcast Tim & Kev’s Big Design Adventure.
“It’s going to be entertaining and edifying,” promises Kevin.
“And full of surprises – you won’t believe where our nerdy curiosity will take you,” adds Tim.
Tickets for this very special live experience are strictly limited, please book now to avoid missing out.

National Library of Australia
Opened in 1968, the National Library of Australia is a striking example of mid-century civic architecture, designed by Bunning and Madden in association with Walter Bunning. Set on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin, the building embodies the classical ideals of order and permanence, interpreted through a distinctly Australian modernist lens.
Its colonnaded façade of marble and granite lends a monumental calm, while the interiors balance grandeur with intimacy through warm timber finishes and soft natural light. The Library was conceived as a “temple of knowledge,” anchoring the Parliamentary Triangle as part of Walter and Marion Mahony Griffin’s original plan for Canberra.
Beyond its architectural gravitas, the Library houses millions of books, manuscripts, photographs and artworks — a living record of the nation’s story. Decades on, it remains both a cultural landmark and a testament to Australia’s post-war confidence in knowledge and design.
This show is proudly presented in partnership with the National Library of Australia.
