Live Music in Sydney

From world-renowned artists performing at the Sydney Opera House to intimate gigs at Newtown’s The Vanguard (42 King Street, Newtown), Sydney boasts a broad live-music scene that caters to every musical predilection. Oxford Art Factory (38-46 Oxford Street, Darlinghurst) is popular amongst locals and hails back to Andy Warhol’s Factory in ’60s New York, while jazz is best experienced at The Basement (29 Reiby Place) or Venue 505 (280 Cleveland Street, Surry Hills). Since opening its doors in 1908, the Enmore Theatre (118-132 Enmore Road, Newtown) has played host to highly acclaimed artists such as The Rolling Stones, Coldplay, Oasis and The White Stripes.
