South Eveleigh Street Party

South Eveleigh has announced their inaugural Street Party Festival, which will see some of Sydney’s biggest food and beverage operators (including Kylie Kwong’s Lucky Kwong, Matt Whiley’s Re and Alex Prichard’s Icebergs), entertainers (including Donny Benet and Ngaiire), and kids entertainers come together for an electrifying two-day festival.

Street Party, taking place on Thursday 5 and Friday 6, promises a vast variety of experiences for people of all ages, spanning music, food, beverage, art, design, dance, and play, embracing the myriad forms of community culture.

There is something for everyone at Street Party, including:

For the food lovers – At Re, celebrated regenerative bar by Matt Whiley, Head Chef Alex Prichard from Iceberg’s Dining Room & Bar will host a take-over, curating a menu available for both dine-in and takeaway. Alex’s menu will celebrate native produce and local artisans, acknowledging the importance of origin and sustainability. Lucky Kwong will offer dine-in and takeaway lunch options as well as an evening dining experience for two nights only, and has curated a special dish just for the festival.

For the music buffs – South Eveleigh will undergo a musical transformation with two nights of captivating performances. Artist Ngaiire will take centre stage at The Eveleigh, as well as dynamic headliner Donny Benet, a classically trained jazz musician with recent sell-out shows in Sydney. Support artists throughout the two evenings include A. Girl, Reyanna Maria, Soju Gang and Eddy Diamond.

For families – Village Square Retrosweat will introduce children to the iconic 1980s freestyle aerobic workout, hosted by Retrosweat founder Shannon Dooley. Sydney Swans AFLW player Aliesha Newman will host a meet and greet session, Tribal Warrior will host a kids boxing session, and over at the newly-opened Anita Gelato South Eveleigh, kids can exercise their creativity as they get involved with a community mural activity.
