This weekend, thousands of fake tanned, waxed and barely clothed boys and girls (Yes! Boys AND girls) will compare selfies while popping pills and checking out each others’ muscle tone. That’s right! It’s Stereosonic!
The Ibiza infused Cafe Del Mar is set to open its doors on Monday 18th November and introduce Sydney to its unique flavour of partying. Situated on the Rooftop Terrace of Cockle Bay Wharf, Cafe Del Mar oozes elegance, fun and tropical inspired partying that will definitely be a hit with Sydneysiders.
Having lived in South West Sydney my whole life, it has come to my attention that local nightspots are becoming increasingly popular and popping up, especially in Campbelltown. Not to say I’m disappointed. With renovations and redecorating, the local spots in the South West are crowded and happening, especially on Thursday and Friday nights.
When foreign travellers visiting our shores ruminate the national characteristics of Australia, drinking and partying is often featured towards the top of the list. This observation seems accurate as many of us enjoy the chaotic auditorium that is the nightlife scene and the boozing that goes along with it.
After having numerous DJs plug their music to the folks at Budweiser to try and become the biggest thing in DJing since David Guetta, now’s your chance to decide who’s the best of the best. We all had to vote for Kevin Rudd or Tony Abbott earlier this year, so why not vote for something you actually care about? The future of party music is at stake here!
Sometimes instead of going clubbing, I’m looking for a fun and varied Saturday night. Yes, I love dancing, but occasionally I get sick of sweaty strangers rubbing up against me all night. I still want to go to the city, but I want to do something fun instead of going clubbing or even before going clubbing. Seriously, why does no one want to do anything fun when they’re drunk anymore?! They’re all getting lazy!
When you get to Wednesday during the week, it really is Hump Day. You don’t want to work anymore and you’re hanging out for the weekend. Luckily, Sydney has the perfect Hump Day destination to get wild on a Wednesday.
Venues always open and close as trends in the pub industry. With this came the closure and relaunch of The Royal Hotel in Leichhardt in mid September with brand spanking new look and ways of offering its customers a great time. I spoke with The Royal’s General Manager, Mark Chapman, about all the great changes that customers can expect to soon see.
Coming as an international exchange student from Northern Ireland, let me give you three buzz words about the kind of clubs I have been to at home - cheap, sleazy and small. That said, you can have the best kind of nights there, especially when you put ‘£1′ and ‘shots’ together in one sentence.
Ultimately if you want to save money on a night out in Sydney, and enjoy the week that follows, you need to plan ahead, plain and simple. Do not leave your drunken self to its own devices, it will screw you over. Not only will you end up vomiting on a sidewalk, shoes in hand, while waiting for a taxi - you will be poor.
