LEVEL UP 2026: MID-YEAR CONCERT
On Sunday, June 14th, Elevate Singing Studio proudly hosted our annual mid-year concert, Level Up 2026, at That Creative Hub in Tullamarine.
What started as a single showcase quickly became our biggest concert yet, with over 100 attendees joining us for our Junior Show alone. Thanks to the incredible growth of our studio, we also hosted a second performance later in the day for our senior students, making this our largest Level Up event to date.
Level Up has become one of our favourite traditions at Elevate. It's an opportunity for students to step outside their comfort zones, share what they've been working on in lessons, and celebrate their progress in front of family and friends.
From first-time performers bravely taking the stage to experienced students showcasing how far they've come, the day was filled with memorable performances, supportive cheers and an incredible sense of community. One of the most rewarding parts of running these events is seeing the growth of our students year after year. Watching their confidence, stage presence and vocal ability continue to develop is exactly why we do what we do.
This year's concert was also particularly special as it marked the introduction of our newest team member, Coach Sienna. Sienna has already become a wonderful addition to the Elevate family, bringing her experience as an Australia's Got Talent Grand Finalist, professional musical theatre performer and current Victorian College of the Arts Secondary School student.
A huge thank you to our students, families, coaches and supporters for helping make Level Up 2026 such a success. Your encouragement and enthusiasm create the positive and supportive atmosphere that makes Elevate events so special.
We're incredibly proud of every performer who took the stage and can't wait to continue watching our students grow throughout the rest of 2026.
Until next time, keep singing, keep growing and keep levelling up. 🎤✨
RELAY FOR LIFE WYNDHAM 2026
On May 2nd, Elevate Singing Studio was proud to perform at Relay For Life Wyndham, joining the local community in supporting an important cause.
Providing students with opportunities to perform beyond the studio is a key part of what we do at Elevate. Events like Relay For Life allow our singers to build confidence, gain real-world performance experience, and use their talents to contribute to something meaningful.
We were incredibly proud of our students for taking to the stage and representing Elevate Singing Studio with confidence, enthusiasm, and heart. Thank you to Relay For Life Wyndham for having us, and to our families for their ongoing support.

RELAY FOR LIFE NAB 2026
On 19 February 2026, Elevate Singing Studio was proud to perform at Relay For Life at JL Murphy Reserve in Port Melbourne.
This event holds a special place in the heart of our founder, Erica Padilla, who has been involved with Relay For Life for over a decade. What began as a teenager volunteering, fundraising, and performing at the event has now come full circle with the opportunity to bring Elevate students onto the stage.
We are passionate about creating meaningful performance opportunities for our singers while supporting important community causes. It was wonderful to see our students sharing their talents, supported by their families and the wider Relay For Life community.
Events like these remind us that music is about more than performance, it's about connection, community, and making a positive impact.
LIMITLESS: END OF YEAR CONCERT 2025
Our 2025 End of Year Concert, LIMITLESS, was truly one for the books. Held at Kindred Bandroom on Saturday the 29th of November, this was our biggest concert to date and a powerful reflection of just how far our community has come.
This year marked massive growth for Elevate. We welcomed so many new students into the studio, expanded our programs, and watched confidence bloom across every level. To see all of that hard work culminate in a sold-out audience was incredibly special. The room was full of energy, pride, and support from families, friends, and our wider Elevate community.
Every student who stepped onto that stage did so with courage, commitment, and heart. From first-time performers to our most experienced singers, each performance showcased not only vocal growth, but confidence, stage presence, and artistry. The atmosphere was electric, and the pride we felt watching our students shine is hard to put into words.
