Sydney’s Lansdowne Hotel has narrowly escaped being shut down as a music venue after the Oxford Art Factory team swooped in and took over at the eleventh hour. Huge stuff, love this for the music scene.
The Marys Group — who relaunched the Sydney music institution back in 2017 — announced it would be moving out of the Chippendale pub earlier this year. The team said the building’s owners were keen to transform the upstairs band room into hostel-style accommodation, which wasn’t part of the vision the burger empire group had for the space.
