We have put together a list of rave parties in Sydney, Australia from 1989 until 1997. We have attempted to be as accurate as possible, but there is some missing information. Please contact us and let us know if you can fill in the gaps or if we have gotten anything wrong.

1989 - RAT Parties, Sweatbox, FUN. It  was all about the Hodern Pavilion. Very underground parties, yet still had thousands of people attending

1992 - Children of the Vortex and Prodigy step it up a notch. Lasers are all the rage. Krackerjack and Tribal also enter the scene.

1995 - Happy Hardcore seems to be taking over. Faster music and more people. The crowd seems to be getting younger. The Hardcore Cafe raves are growing.

1990 - Bacchanalia, Madchester and the first appearance of the word 'rave' in Sydney on a 'Flim Flam' flyer

1993 - The year of the South Sydney Warehouse raves. Prodigy, Aztec II, Space Cadet, Happy Valley 3 and Crisis Point - all highlights

1996 - The govt. are making it difficult to stage an event. FOD4 goes off with out a hitch though. Some great events and the raves are getting harder and faster.

1991 - Sweet Science, Eden, All in the Bubble of Yum and Psychosis. Production got bigger and better and the music really started to change

1994 - Raves are getting bigger and better and more known thanks to the media. Mayday, Colossus, Pleasuredome, Smurf Village

1997 - Media coverage is growing and more and more people are attending. Helter Skelter, Nightbreeds, Utopias all go down in rave legend!

1998 - This seems to be a changing of the guard for Sydney raves. Productions have slowed down waiting for a new group of promoters and crowd to re gather for the next wave.
