THIS IS THE BIG ONE...

We’re bloody pinching ourselves to be the OFFICIAL Music Partner of Sydney's South by SouthWest Festival (SXSW)®, hitting Aussie shores in October 2023!

SXSW Sydney™ will take place across seven days and nights next October and much like the flagship Austin festival, will be a must-attend for music fans, creatives, innovators and other professionals alike, with hundreds of activations, events, gigs, workshops and more set to take place throughout Sydney over the course of the week.

As dedicated supporters of music and culture in our fine city since day one, we’re looking forward to working with the SXSW® crew on igniting the festival’s live music offering for the first time!

Our co-founder Oscar McMahon had this to say on the epic news: 

“Young Henrys established itself in Sydney in 2012 and has always found its kindred spirits amongst the many culture creators within the arts, music, sustainability and hospitality scenes. SXSW Sydney marks something significant for our city; giving us an opportunity to showcase our progressive, cultural and worldly side to a national and international audience. As an independent Australian business, we couldn’t be prouder to be stepping up to support such an important moment in the cultural landscape.”

Joining us for the festival’s inaugural Aussie dig will be our good mates at UTS, who have come on board as the festival’s Education Partner. We’re currently working with the UTS Science crew on our Algae Project - focused on lowering emissions throughout the brewing process, and can’t wait to see what they have in store for SXSW Sydney™!

We’re excited to share all the updates over coming months but for now, clear your calendar and follow the festival announcements here.
