The World Bar: One More Time
World Bar is returning to Sydney for a one-night takeover of Kings Cross Hotel — and yes, there will be teapots.
Overview
Five years after closing, and following two unsuccessful attempts to revive it (as Cali Club and Kings Cross Pavilion), World Bar is returning to Sydney — but just for one night. The legendary Kings Cross nightclub was a key part of Sydney's nightlife and live music scene for 18 years before it closed in 2018 following the disastrous consequences of the lockout laws. Now, the team is getting back together for a takeover of Kings Cross Hotel.
It's all going down on Saturday, November 18, nearly five years to the day that the original club closed. The takeover will be bringing throwback tunes to all four levels of the William Street pub — and, most importantly, there will be teapots. Whether they will be at 2018 prices is yet to be seen.
Each level of Kings Cross Hotel will be celebrating a different iteration of World Bar, with club nights like The Wall, Banquet, Mum and Cake all being given their own floors.
The lineup of DJs, producers and live musicians features plenty of World Bar regulars, including sets from Stoney Roads DJs and Under CTRL DJs on the Cakes level; a b2b set from The Wall mainstays Badrapper, Enschway and Made by Tsuki; a secret special guest on the Banquet level and the World Bar All-Stars at the Main Bar.
The takeover will kick off at 8pm and rage on until the early hours of the morning. Whether you were a regular at The Wall or you never had a chance to experience the storied multi-level club, this is a reunion you don't want to miss.
Tickets have sold out online, but there will be limited door spots from 8pm — so get down early and you'll be able to sneak in.
