If upping your dancing in 2023 was on your New Year's resolution list, then look no further than The Abercrombie this year, with the beloved Sydney venue reopening after eight whole years at the end of 2022. Equipped with a 24-hour license and a new state-of-the-art sound system, the legendary bar is back in a big way with a host of events curated by the who's who of Sydney's dance and electronic scene.
Come Friday, January 13, a longtime local party collective is making the move from warehouse raves to The Abercrombie for a massive event spanning multiple days. Velodrome has pulled together a hefty lineup of local DJs for its Spin Club, a huge 14-hour party that will run from 10pm on Friday all the way through until midday on Saturday.
Taking over the venue's two distinct stages will be the likes of Fantastic Man, Ben Fester, Crescendoll, DJ Earl Grey, Francis Inferno Orchestra and Mija Healey among a lineup of 11 renowned electronic music tastemakers.
Tickets for the night are available for $30, a bargain when you consider that's just over $2 per hour of dancing if you attend for the whole 14 hours.
While you're enjoying the sets, you can also sneak off to The Abercrombie's two new internal venues — rooftop cocktail bar Casa Rosa and late-night wine bar Lil Sis — for a reprise from the dance floor and a pét-nat sgroppino with blood orange sorbet.
