Looking for something fun, free and a little bit bonkers? Haphazard is back at Z-arts this August and it’s perfect for families.

This playful one-day event transforms the building into a colourful world of surprises, silliness and creativity. Pop in anytime to enjoy live performances, strange objects and unexpected art.

Although we can’t describe what type of performance you’ll encounter, we do know that there have been golden toilets, singing fish and even a saxophone-playing bear at previous events.

It’s totally free and there’s no need to book – just turn up and enjoy the adventure.
