We’ve got more merchandise to sell at our tenth!
Not content with only offering t-shirts, we’ll also be selling exclusive Gig Buddies’ hoodies, beanies and caps.
And in other birthday related news, we can now reveal the canapés that will be served on the night.
Today's merch and food announcements follow last week’s news when we revealed the evening’s entertainment: we’ll kick things off with live violinist, Isabel Tzorbatzaki. She’ll be setting the scene with an eclectic mix of pop, classical, folk, and jazz music.
Indie pop band, The After Thoughts then take to the stage, and we’ll finish up with a live DJ bringing the club vibes.
Ticket sales to our tenth close next Friday (23/5) - do not miss out!
Whether you’re based in Sydney or on the Central Coast, we invite you dust off those dancing shoes and join us at the Australian National Maritime Museum.
