Manning Bar

Newtown & the Inner West


Deep within the leafy grounds of Sydney Uni, this former women’s college now houses a 950-capacity venue with multiple levels and spaces. Check the gig guide for big-shot local and international bands, comedy and dance parties. Manning also hosts the Sydney Uni band comp, which has kick-started the careers of Aussie indie darlings like the Laurels, the Jezabels and Cloud Control.

It also hosts a regular Rock n Roll Market with a record fair and vintage fashion.
