Oxford Art Factory is Throwing a Huge Free Show For Its Tenth Birthday

This article is supported by Budweiser. Budweiser are supporting music with their Bud Garage gig series across Sydney over the next few months.

Sydney's Oxford Art Factory has been putting on shows for 10 years and to celebrate is presenting a free gig on Saturday Oct 14. The lineup is made up of staff favourite bands and DJs including Big White, Party Dozen, Palms, Green Buzzard, ORB, Gum and more.

Since its inception in 2007, OAF has hosted a mean roster of international and local acts, including a then-unknown Mother Monster, Lady Gaga, on her first tour in 2008. The venue has also hosted Australian icon Rowland S. Howard, electropunk legends Crystal Castles and The Smiths' Johnny Marr.

Oxford Art Factory founder Mark Gerber remembers landing Lady Gaga's first ever Sydney show, "I had no idea what to expect she was unknown then, we got way more than we ever bargained for". More recently, Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins took the OAF stage to perform with their cover band Chevy Metal.

Like the best venues, OAF stands to be more than just a music venue and over the last decade the space has become an important home and supporter for local and Australian music.
