What's On (Australian TV program)

What's On was a long-running Australian television program that showcased a variety of entertainment and leisure activities available to viewers. Its primary focus was on promoting local events, including theatre productions, concerts, festivals, exhibitions, and sporting events. The program also often included interviews with performers and artists, as well as behind-the-scenes glimpses of upcoming attractions. What's On served as a comprehensive guide for viewers seeking information about arts and entertainment options in their region. The broadcast frequency and specific regions covered varied depending on the local television station that aired the program. Often the program would be locally produced, meaning "What's On" programs would exist in different cities independently. Its format usually involved a presenter introducing various upcoming events, showing relevant clips or stills, and providing information on ticket availability and locations. The program aimed to be a valuable resource for people looking to plan their leisure time and engage with their local community. The program has been seen less frequently as of the 21st century, due to the increase in online resources, such as ticketing websites and searchable event listings, becoming more common and accessible.
