Parkway Drive’s HOME opens in Australian cinemas on November 12, 2026, taking their orchestral Sydney Opera House show beyond the audience who saw it in person. Built around the band’s June 9, 2025 performance in the Concert Hall, the documentary follows the preparations for a black-tie concert that reworked their songs with a full symphony orchestra.
Putting it together meant learning how to explain those songs in another musical language. In a January interview published by Loudwire, vocalist Winston McCall said Parkway had six months to develop the show, around a third of their usual production preparation time. Alongside choosing the set and designing the staging, they had to communicate their ideas to orchestral musicians despite being unable to write musical notation themselves. The opportunity also changed their recording plans: time they had expected to spend writing music went into preparing the concert.
Then came the day when the band and orchestra played it together. “We got to rehearse once with the orchestra,” McCall told Billboard. They completed a full dress rehearsal, ate dinner and returned to perform the concert. Parkway had funded the show themselves, and the production was staged for one night only.
Directors Allan Hardy and Macario De Souza, working with production company Hype Republic, built HOME around both that undertaking and the people who came to see it. Fans who traveled from around the world share their connections to Parkway’s music, giving the documentary an audience perspective alongside the preparations and performances. Their stories are part of a film about a band asking longtime listeners to hear familiar material in a different setting.
The production also took McCall onto the outside of the building. HOME includes a promotional sequence in which he rappels from a helicopter onto the Opera House’s sails. That stunt was filmed separately from the concert inside the hall.
For a preview of the musical side, the band has released its performance of “Prey” from the night. The official live video presents the song in its orchestral arrangement ahead of the full concert recording.
That recording, HOME – Live At The Sydney Opera House, arrives December 4, 2026, with 20 tracks. Nooky joins “Shadow Boxing,” while Jenna McDougall appears on “A Deathless Song.” The selection also includes “Carrion,” “Dark Days” and the closing “Wild Eyes,” bringing songs from different stages of the band’s catalog into the same orchestral production.
The cinema rollout reaches North America on November 18, following premiere screenings in Los Angeles on November 15 and New York on November 17. The band’s screening schedule also lists London on November 19, Berlin on November 22 and Tokyo on November 25.
