Bendigo Venues and Events manager David Lloyd said the Play At Home initiative was aimed at lifting the community's spirits.
It will include Bendigo musicians, comedians, actors and other performing artists sharing their talents.
"Play At Home content will be posted and shared to our digital audience of about 25,000 initially but we expect the content will go far and wide," he said.
"We consider arts an essential component of healthy living and I am so pleased we can help our community experience great local arts and entertainment on a digital platform, in their homes during this period of isolation.
"Play At Home is one of several initiatives Bendigo Venues & Events has introduced to support artists and our community at this challenging time."
Members of the public wishing to see the performances, playing times and other information should follow Ulumbarra or the Capital Theatre on Facebook.
Artists and performers interested in submitting a video can do so from 5pm on Thursday, April 9. For more visit www.bendigovenuesandevents.com.au
