Overview

Sydney Festival is back for the summer of '24 and it's setting up a waterfront arts precinct at Walsh Bay. This physical strip of the program is called The Thirsty Mile. On offer there: theatre and art, cabaret and dance, bars and speakeasies, and also a late-night club Moonshine Bar.

As part of The Thirsty Mile's program, dance music and party-throwing legends Astral People are doing a series of parties — and here's one worth bookmarking immediately.

Head to Moonshine Bar on Saturday, January 13 and you'll be treated to a performance from genre-bending multi-instrumentalist Nabihah Iqbal. Fans of pop-tinged rock music in any shape or form just need to listen to Iqbal's track 'This World Couldn't See Us' and you'll be immediately hooked on the fast-rising British musician.

Iqbal's first-ever show Down Under will be presented by Astral People as well as local South Asian creative collective Kerfew. The Sydney-based group explore stories of the Australian South Asian diaspora through music and art, and will be continuing the party outside Iqubal's performance via the DJ decks.
