The Oxford Art Factory has announced a free, full-venue mini-festival to celebrate its 17th anniversary. Headlining the event will be Sydney psychedelic band The Lazy Eyes, playing one of their first live shows locally since last year’s Laneway Festival, as well as 3% – the new hip-hop supergroup comprised of Nooky, Dallas Woods and Angus Field. The full first announcement of acts, as well as a link to RSVP for the night, can be found below.
“After years of unforgettable memories of music and community, what better way to share the love than with more of the same,” wrote the venue managers on social media announcing the show. “[We have] a stellar lineup across two stages, and a free drink on arrival –if you get down early! Whether it’s your first or 17th year celebrating with us, we’re so excited to party with you.”

After being unable to celebrate its 13th and 14th birthdays due to lockdowns, the venue had its 15th birthday celebrations in early October 2022. It was headlined by a performance from Pacific Avenue, with acts such as Nice Biscuit, Abby Bella May, Sunfruits and Salarymen also joining the festivities.
Last year’s sweet 16th, meanwhile, featured a headlining performance from Melbourne band Cash Savage & The Last Drinks, as well as sets from The Southern River Band, Caitlin Harnett & The Pony Boys, Girl & Girl and Jet City Sports Club.
