To cap off another massive year for Nova Entertainment’s live music brand Nova’s Red Room, close to 600 guests last night enjoyed the biggest gig for 2017, Nova’s Red Room with Rita Ora and Rudimental unlocked by Vodafone.
Held at Aerial at Melbourne’s South Wharf, Nova’s Red Room with Rita Ora and Rudimental saw the two UK superstars jet halfway across the globe to perform for lucky guests for a night that also showcased local artists.

To add to the star-studded lineup, guests were treated to a special guest performance by Australia’s newest music prodigy – 15-year-old Ruel, stepping in on vocals for “Sun Comes Up”.
Returning to Australia for the first time in three years, and just days after her gig hosting the MTV EMAs in London, Rita Ora delivered an amazing performance of some of her biggest hits including “I Will Never Let you Down”, “Poison” and “Body on Me” as well as her new hits “Anywhere”, “Your Song” and “Lonely Together”.
Thanks to the magic of radio, Rita Ora appeared with Fitzy and Wippa this morning on their Sydney Nova breakfast show where they presented her with a koala outfit. She also revealed she expected to be touring Australia in mid-2018.
