13th Australian National Northern Soul Weekender

“Gonna Be A Big Thing”


As Northern Soul was an underground scene in the UK, it has remained so in Australia. Moving over here from the UK as most of us did, it could take a while to settle in and many weren’t aware there was a scene here. Particularly before the internet became part of our daily routine. I think there are lots here in Sydney who don’t know yet! Maybe we’ll find them this year.

The Australian National is an annual event and is held in a different city every year. We held the 13th Australian National in Sydney and the 14th National will be held in Melbourne – November 11th – 13th 2011
