Overview

For one magnificent spring day, Surry Hills will turn itself over to its beloved annual festival this Saturday, September 24. 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 Brisbane band Hey Geronimo, who'll be playing in Ward Park at 5pm. Over at Shannon Reserve after that, producers Lanks and Wishes will take the stage, followed by Sydney outfit Castlecomer.

When you're not kicking back to the music, you can get active on guided tours of Surry Hills' creative spaces and architecture, along which you'll meet all kinds of local artists and creatives. Plus, there'll be heaps of other things happening to keep you entertained, including roving art performances, projections and plenty of food stalls.
