Overview
For one magnificent spring day, Surry Hills will turn itself over to its beloved annual festival this Saturday, September 26. You can expect the usual explosion of creativity and music, with pop-up spaces, laneway experiments and hidden pop-up bars complementing all-day live music and markets in Shannon Reserve and Ward Park. And it's all free, free, free.
Heading the music lineup are triple j favourites I Know Leopard, who'll be bringing their '70s inspired, celestial pop to Shannon Reserve at 9pm. Preceding them is quite the epic, eclectic programme, including the reggae-soul sounds of Lyre Birdland, indie-rock from The Civilians, The Stiffys and acoustic-folk from Sons of the East.
When you're not kicking back to the music, you can get active on a self-guided tour of the Surry Hills creative trail, along which you'll meet all kinds of local artists and creatives. Or check out performance art piece Soapbox, inspired by the Speakers' Corner tradition.
