The day is nearly upon us! Purple Sneakers turns 11 years old this weekend, and we have been working hard to put together the best possible event for you to share with us. We've got an outstanding lineup, filled with emerging artists and much-loved party crews from around Sydney to ring in another year of PS, from NINAJIRACHI and WILLARIS. K to HEAPS GAY DJS, BAD DEEP DJS, VOLUMES and more, making sure the dancefloors are filled very early on at the iconic Lord Gladstone Hotel.
First, a few thank you's must go out to our friends at FBi Radio for presenting our special night, and of course VIVID for having us on board for a second year in a row as an official VIVID event. We must also thank our sponsors, Young Henry's and Smirnoff for keeping our artists refreshed! We couldn't have pulled this off without the help of our presenters and sponsors, so we are so grateful for coming on board with us again.

Second, an important update. If you were at our epic tenth birthday party last year, you would remember the lines and how packed it was. Purple Sneakers has always been pretty much a house party. The environment is relaxed, the entry is free, the venue is an old pub. It’s not like a typical live music venue. This environment is what makes it special. But it is also what makes it a bit more challenging. So we ask you to have a bit of patience with us and the venue on the day. Remember that it takes longer to get up and down stairs, the stages are smaller, the crowds are more in your face. As with last year, we recommend arriving early to avoid disappointment, as entry will be on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. It's going to be packed, but a whole lot of fun, so get down early to not miss out!
Thirdly, set times have now been announced! Check out all your info below, and get those dancing shoes ready. This is gonna be big!
