THE HISTORY OF THE SYDNEY ROAD STREET PARTY
A lot went down in 1989. The first unofficial text message was sent. The World Wide Web was first imagined by Tim Berners-Lee, which would later be opened to the public for free use in 1993. American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift was also born in 1989, and Beat TV’s Dan Watt celebrated his 50th birthday, too. But without doubt, 1989 will go down in history as the year that the Sydney Road Street Party was first held, in a humble park on Victoria Street, west of Sydney Road.

The street party was originally an initiative of the Brunswick Ethnic Communities Council, sponsored by the City of Brunswick, and since incorporated into the City of Moreland. The following year, the event was relocated to Dawson Street – affectionately known as Dawson’s Creek by nobody as the 1998 drama was still nine years away – located between Sydney Road and
the Upfield Railway Line. As this was so successful, it was moved to Sydney Road, between Union and Albert Streets, and extended in subsequent years to Victoria Street. There are many different street-based festivals in Melbourne, but a lot of these celebrate a particular occasion or cultural group. The Sydney Road Street Party, however, cherishes the diversity of one of Melbourne’s most multicultural suburbs – the innernorthern suburb of Brunswick. The street party is usually held on a Sunday at the end of February/early March, and runs from 12pm to 7pm. Sydney Road is closed to traffic from Union Street to Victoria Street in Brunswick, a length of about 1.5 km, or 7,936 handspans for those who like to walk on their hands.
within the festival area, stages are erected for a variety of live music. Hundreds of community groups and local businesses set up stalls on the road between the stages. Additionally, street theatre and children’s shows, and a wide variety of tasty food from many cuisines is there to be sampled. Attendance at the festival has steadily grown in recent years and in 2008, it was estimated that 60,000 people enjoyed the festivities while four people did not, with one punter claiming the weather was “pretty hot� and another expressing his disappointment with the “lack of chicks�. The Sydney Road Street Party has a fascinating history and is treasured by the local community. The street party reflects the exciting, creative and vivacious atmosphere of the Brunswick area, and we can’t wait to see what its future holds. See you on Sydney Road this weekend.

For twenty five years, the Brunswick Music Festival has celebrated live folk, roots, and blues music. Launched by the Brunswick City Council in 1989, the high quality of the Festival programming and the welcoming atmosphere has drawn audiences back again and again. Gracing the Brunswick Town Hall, the Mechanics Institute, commercial and community venues, the Festival has presented local artists like The Audreys, Mick Thomas and Fiona Boyes, Eric Bogle, Judy Small, Kelly Auty and Indigenous artists including The Pigram Brothers, Joe Geia, the Mills Sisters, the Black Arm Band and Archie Roach and the late Ruby Hunter. International artists like Andy Irvine, Vin Garbutt, Chris Smither, Eddie Reader and John McCutcheon have also appeared at the festival, many returning to enjoy the hospitality and camaraderie as much as the opportunity to perform for an appreciative audience. The then Council Arts Officer Peter Leman first came up with the idea of holding a festival after the very successful Music of Migration concert at the Brunswick Town Hall. The first Brunswick Music Festival had three directors: Dobe Newton of the Bushwackers, Dan Bourke of The Purple Dentists and George Galiatsos of Apodomi Compania. The festival has continued to showcase bands and
BEAT MAGAZINE’S 2014 SYDNEY ROAD STREET PARTY GUIDE PAGE 4
musicians from all over the globe: Raga Bliss, Jewel of the Bosporous and The London Klezmer Orchestra to name a few. Songs of conscience have also featured prominently in the Festival program, traditional songs of struggle and triumph over adversity, songs from the union movement, and songs about feminism and conservation. As well as the formal concerts, the festival has supported umbrella events in other music venues. It was not unusual for artists on the formal program to turn up to another gig after their own concert and jam with the band. The Lomond Hotel has continued this fine tradition for 25 years. John McAuslan was appointed as director by Brunswick Council in the mid-1990s, having worked with the festival since 1991. After the amalgamation of local government, the Festival was tendered out by the newly created Moreland City Council under the Kennett Government’s compulsory competitive tendering policy. John’s company, Across the Borders, won the contract and continued to deliver the program. In 2008, Council handed responsibility for the delivery of the Brunswick Music Festival and the Sydney Road Street Party to Performing Arts Moreland (PAM), an independent not-for-profit company of voluntary directors. Throughout all of
these changes John was supported by a great team who can’t all be named here. Key people include Pammie Kryzwinski, Naomi Boyle, Peter Leman, Rosie West, Chrissie Vincent, Sandra O’Mahoney, Gillian McCarrey and Tamaryn Goodyear. In mid 2012, John McAuslan announced his intention to retire and wind up Across the Borders after the 2013 festival. With planning for the 25th festival well advanced however, John suffered a major heart attack in November 2012 and needed surgery. Fortunately, Peter Leman stepped in as director, dealing with the chaos and the temporary loss of the town hall venue and carried the 25th festival to a very successful conclusion. John recuperated sufficiently to attend most of the gigs. With the withdrawal of Across the Borders as event managers for the Brunswick Music Festival, PAM publicly tendered for a new contractor in March 2013 and after a highly competitive process a three-year contract was awarded to Strut and Fret Production House.
Compiled by PAM Chair Leanne Connell May the BMF continue to grow and thrive, keeping the festive spirit of the City of Moreland alive for many years to come.
