Beck’s Festival Bar is an institution. It’s January, the evenings are balmy, and the music is where it’s at. It’s Sydney’s favourite summer pop-up bar, and quite simply, there’s no other venue like it.

In 2011 Beck’s Festival Bar serves up a veritable smorgasbord of live music and DJs from around the world, ranging from some on-the-rise newbies to some classics. It’s all about getting’ up, gettin’ it on, getting down or whatever gets you going.
