Overview

Located a stone's throw from Newtown and just down the road from the Vic on the Park, The Factory Theatre is one of Sydney's often under-appreciated live music establishments. The multi-space venue offers up stages of all different sizes for musicians and comics. Every Sunday, it takes full advantage of its openair courtyard with a series of free gigs titled Free-kin Weekends.

For the month of February, The Factory has announced a program of four live music day parties featuring an array of local talents spanning a slew of genres. Kicking things off on Sunday, February 6 is a triple-header of fresh faces in the Sydney indie rock and pop scene staring Georgia June, Salarymen and Green Screen — the latter of which features members of the bands The Buoys and Baby Beef.

Other exciting acts you'll find on the February lineup include punk rockers Crocodylus and Dick Dudley, reggae rockers Rum Jungle and the soothing sounds of Wollongong favourite Stevan.

While audience members won't be able to sing or dance during February due to current NSW restrictions, you'll still be able to catch some live music, sample craft brews from the venues bar and grab a bite to eat at one of the courtyard's food trucks.
