Surry Hills Festival is always a great combination of sunshine, live music, good food, and sensible, sensible drinking.
This year’s musical lineup has just been released, and they’ve surpassed their excellent last efforts with a main stage lineup including brilliant soul singer Thandi Phoenix, triple j’s favourite hip hop duo Coda Conduct, trobadour Joe Mungovan, plus Ungus Ungus Ungus, The Fever Pitch, Borneo, Dweeb City, and DJ Jay Katz.
In addition there will also be the AIM pop up stage at Shannon Reserve, showcasing a host of upcoming artists.
If you haven’t yet been to a Surry Hills Festival, it totally takes over Ward Park, Devonshire Street, Shannon Reserve, Crown Street, plus a lot of the local nooks, bars, and stores. Some crannies, too. Over 60,000 people attended last year, and we can only expect this year to be bigger. Unless it snows. It probably won’t, though.
The whole thing happens on Saturday September 23, and as always, all funds raised on the day go to community programs presented by Surry Hills Neighbourhood Centre.
