LIVE MUSIC ACROSS NSW

FIND A GIG

Australia’s first and only state-wide live music initiative is back for its fifth year, shining a spotlight on the power of live performance. Great Southern Nights brings Australian music to life on stages across NSW, celebrating everything from legendary acts to emerging artists making their mark.

Spanning every genre in hundreds of venues across the state, the program is all about the music - loud, intimate, unexpected and unforgettable. From country to roots, indie to industrial, rock to electronic and everything in between, we're inviting everyone to experience the thrill of live music across 17 nights in May.
