Swingin Safari - [TM] a lifestyle brand & pop up events production concept which revolutionised GC Nightlife since '03..thru Arts/Entertainment/Education

Swingin Safari - is a collective, a lifestyle brand..'a thing' that started its life in 2003, as a group of friends pooled their skills, to animate a vacant old beachouse & former restaurant, to test a pop up business idea with a 3 month lease...it lasted for 11 years. Lets call it 'action research' for 11 years much as been learnt, it became internationally famous and recognised as a Gold Coast I

con, it brought back the grace of 'the dinner dance' in style. Now we seek to collaborate, to build on this experience, to educate and guide, organise Events & Festivals that build creative capacity, feature performance from many disciplines, including but not limited to Cabaret, Youth projects, spoken word, solo acoustic, electronic & visual interactive, funk, physical theatre, fashion parades, stand up comedy, Fringe Dj's & Vj's and dance. Circa 2003-2014 - In one of the toughest economic environments Swingin Safari became something from nothing, its found objects, recycled lounges, hand me downs & leftovers, became collectors pieces @ the Bohemian Bazaar. It became The Star of The Creative Economy & a spark that litup the bright ideas seen today in the use of recycled materials, furniture and quirky stuff . What unfolded is a concept that captured imaginations...it became a local oasis in a cutural desert, the Frontrunner of the Gold Coast's newfound 'Retro Cool' image. It rapidly became a Cultural Hub - with a strong community ethos - to explore new work, tell new stories, to provoke and delight audiences, a home for the creative , the fun, the entrepreneur,...to collaborate, promote test their ideas, show their art and perform. It was a place where people met, made friends and fell in Love......

Attention Mayor Tom Tate … could you please donate the building your office is in in Southport the Old Town Hall as a free use for musicians and Art performances if you are genuine about making Southport the CBD as the Heart & Soul of the Music Scene ( then please find somewhere more appropriate for the addicts & mentally disturbed to find somewhere more appropriate to camp rather than the Main Street night and day !)

BIG NEWS: We’ve now completed the conversion of all 7 of our town halls to arts and cultural venues available free of charge for live performance, exhibition & rehearsal 🎤 🎹 🧑‍🎨 🎸 🎨

Better yet we have kitted all 7 venues out with audio-visual and performance equipment so there’s no cost to artists to hire.

The number of live music venues in Sydney more than halved in the past decade.

Affordable spaces for artists of all kinds have been lost.

Our town halls are beautiful buildings but they have been sitting dormant and unused to much of the time.

Now it’s time to welcome the people in to use these iconic venues.

Help spread the word to all artists - the Inner West is the place to come to create, practice and perform.
