According to our guide data, over 88% of Sydney’s live music activity takes place in the Inner West or Sydney CBD.

People have less choice over where they live - it's decided by housing and rent affordability - and that makes it harder to develop a long-term investment in a local community.

Here's a location-based heatmap of the 5,770 gigs we covered in 2024.

You can see this and more in our data explorer / time capsule for the year:

Don't forget to pick up some awesome SydneyMusic.net merch in our online store! Shipping all over Australia. All revenue goes straight back into the project.

Totes sold out, stubby coolers nearly all gone - but heaps of tees and stickers still available!
