Southern Ocean Live

1 x 90 MIN LIVE BROADCAST |  2022 | PRODUCED FOR ABC AUSTRALIA

Australia’s Southern Ocean is a wild and dramatic place - full of charismatic creatures and the perfect place for the ABC’s next live adventure. Southern Ocean Live will be a blockbuster night of natural history, broadcast live, from the icy depths of our winter seas.

Our hosts are Hamish MacDonald and Dr Ann Jones, who will be located at Penguin Parade, on Phillip Island in Victoria. During this extraordinary night of broadcast, we will witness stories about whales, great white sharks, cuttlefish, albatross along our Great Southern coastline. We will learn how the southern coastline of Australia is warming and changing four times faster than anywhere in the world, and what this means for scientists trying to protect fragile ecosystems.

Southern Ocean Live promises big creatures, big science and big thrills, as we take the audience on a live adventure that’s as wild as it gets.
