REKTANGO - SALAMANCA
Pop down to Salamanca of a Friday night and you'll typically find a very large crowd tucked in behind the Peacock Theatre. This free live music has become something of a Hobart institution and the friendly vibe makes for a fun evening. Rektango has a very family-friend feel, it's unlikely you won't see a young child up on Dad's shoulders enjoying the tunes. The quarry wall behind the stage offers a rustic, impressive backdrop and a good 'view from the top' is from Kelly's Steps just next door. Get amongst the locals and let your hair down!
