Overview
Get ready to party like it's 2009 — legendary DJ collective Bang Gang is returning to Club 77 this month. The Sydney-born collective, who were at the forefront of the city's early-internet-era electro scene, will be performing together for the first time in over a decade as part of the Darlinghurst nightclub's 28th birthday celebrations.
Bang Gang — who made a name for themselves for their high-energy Friday night sets and bold selections — will be taking over their spiritual home for one massive night on Friday, May 16. It's part of a month-long birthday program for 77 that brings together past legends, rising selectors and the club's own residents, in a celebration of the past and future of Sydney's club culture.
Since it opened in 1997, Club 77 has survived lockouts, lockdowns, licensing crackdowns and the ever-fluctuating tides of the city's live music and nightlife scene. These days, it's still home to some of the sharpest programming in the city, as illustrated by the stacked birthday lineup: alongside Bang Gang, this month you can catch returning heroes like Phil Smart, Robbie Lowe and Dreems, as well as next-gen selectors like Mowgli, Deepa, Ciara, Aquenta, DJ D.Dee and more.
All birthday events are free to enter before midnight if you've signed up for the guest list, otherwise it's $25 at the door. For the full program and to get on the list, head to the Club 77 website.
