8 Days of Christmas 2022
Section 8's free eight-day Christmas party is back with a stack of tunes, live projections and an orphan's Christmas Day barbecue.
Overview
Once again, Melbourne's original shipping container bar Section 8 is celebrating Christmas with a proper knees-up, in the form of a free eight-day party. From December 19–26, the famed CBD beer garden will become celebration central, playing host to a huge lineup of more than 30 great musical acts.
The bar will open at 12pm daily for 8 Days of Christmas, with those dance-friendly sets running until late. Entry is free across the whole week, and gets you you front row seats to a stack of local favourites like Agent 86, Naru, Afrodelica, Amin Payne, Taijae, Mrs Wallace, Mr Pitiful, Tom Showtime, Ghostnotes and more.

As well as tunes, there'll be live projections from Isaiah Morris and Lava Brain, hoop shootouts in the laneway, and a bumper lineup of brews and cocktails to keep you kicking on as long as the festivities do.
And from 12pm on Sunday, December 25, you'll catch Section 8's annual Orphan's Xmas Party, complete with a free barbecue, ice-cold beers and beats spinning from 3pm.
