Relive the glory days of Sydney’s iconic Hopetoun Hotel, the legendary Sydney music venue with musicians Sarah Blasko, Sally Seltmann and Clyde Bramley of the Hoodoo Gurus, and music photographer Tony Mott, in a Vivid Festival talk hosted by Liz Giuffre and Gregory Ferris.

The Hoey shut its doors suddenly in 2009 and has remained empty ever since. Relive the music scene of the 80s, 90s and early 2000s in this love letter to Sydney’s iconic live music venue.

I feel like I just made a lot of friends there, friendships there that I still have now. There are people that continued to be involved in music but I think it was just because it was really small. Somebody came off stage like, there's nowhere to go!  Like you needed to interact with everybody. 

Sarah Blasko
