For Wollongong’s Crown St Takeover 2

“Scabz, Step Panther, Scab Baby, and Satin Cali are next to take on the stage for the Crown St Takeover”

October 02, 2020

After a strenuous year for many, we are pleased to announce the welcoming return of the Crown Street Takeover series. Over 4 weeks in November, the shipping container will become a temporary hub for Wollongong music, with new and exciting contemporary musicians performing each and every Friday night.

Originally formed with the installation and performance from Wollongong based band ‘Hoon’ in 2019. The “Crown Street Mall Takeover” is a series of successive pop up music events performed out of the shipping container currently located in Wollongong Mall.

Through collaborating with Renew Wollongong and Wollongong City Council, Visual Artist and vocalist of ‘Hoon’, Daniel Breda, curated the followup music event series in January of 2020, featuring Velvet Elevator, Solid Effort, Space Boys and an art exhibition by music photographer Chris Frape.

After receiving the funding through Create NSW, we are able to revisit this wonderful event series, and expand it to it’s largest form yet. Hitting the stage for the takeovers third series are some of Wollongong’s greatest punk, garage, alternative and indie rock exports, all distinguishably unique and brilliant in their own rights.

Presented by Daniel Breda, Renew Wollongong, Create NSW, Foley St Studios, City of Wollongong and Crown Street Mall, the ‘Crown St Mall takeover’ series will provide 4 free to attend, all ages and covid safe music events this coming November. Come and safely celebrate with us, as we welcome back music and arts back into the Wollongong CBD.

Bands begin at 9pm and finish by 10pm each night.
