The Rubens '10 YEARS OF HOOPS Celebrations'

Alt-rock favourites The Rubens are celebrating a decade of their breakthrough, gold-certified album Hoops with three huge nights at Oxford Art Factory’s Main Room on August 22, 23 & 24.



Originally released in 2015, Hoops marked a turning point for the band—catapulting them from promising newcomers to one of Australia’s most beloved live acts. The album spawned hit singles including the title track “Hoops,” which famously took out the #1 spot in triple j’s Hottest 100, and laid the foundation for a career that has seen them headline major venues and festivals around the country.



These special shows will see The Rubens dig back into the Hoops era, playing a selection of fan favourites from the record—woven throughout a career-spanning setlist that showcases their evolution across five acclaimed albums. It’s a rare chance to experience the energy of Hoops live in an intimate setting, as the band reflects on where they’ve been and teases what’s to come.



These special shows mark the start of many celebrations planned over the coming months, as The Rubens gear up to release brand-new music from their highly anticipated sixth album.
