Drive Live is open to everyone. The 2026 event is all ages, so Under 18s are welcome and do not require a guardian. PBS will have some snacks and refreshing (non-alcoholic) drinks available for purchase.

Alcohol will not be permitted into the venue. However, there are bars in close proximity of PBS where those over 18 will be able to go after Drive Live including Runner Up, The Tote, Hope St and Commis.

Entry to CY Venue will be available from 4:30pm for all sessions, with the broadcast and first act kicking off from 5pm and the program ending at 7pm each night.

Drive Live coincides with our annual Performer Drive fundraiser - this is the time where we encourage our music creator and player friends to join in what PBS is all about. If you're a band, solo artist, DJ, DIY label or any other kind of music maker - support the station that supports you by joining or renewing as a performer member from February 1 - February 28, 2026.

New and renewing PBS Members go in the running to win one of three massive prize packs, get thanked on their show of choice each week, receive our member benefits all year round, as well as being sent a limited edition Proud PBS Performer Member sticker! Head to the Performer Drive page for the full list of details (from Feb 1).
