UK's legendary Club NME is heading to Australia this February, with the first of what will be a series of regular club nights!
Since its inception in 2004, Club NME has spread its branches across the planet with six UK clubs and nine venues across Europe and the US and now it's our turn!
To kick off the tour Club NME has rounded up some of the finest indie party starters in the country including Philadelphia Grand Jury, Yacht Club DJs, and Purple Sneakers DJs plus they'll be shipping over iconic Brit Andy Rourke who was the bassist from legendary band The Smiths. Rourke is now a high profile indie DJ who has spent the last few years touring the world as well as hosting Saturday nights on Xfm Manchester.
The Club NME tour will be hitting the east coast of Oz stopping in at Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. See below for dates and ticketing details....

I remember seeing Blondie at the Falls Fest in 98. Brilliant. But as a kid my parents would take us to a lot of festivals. I remember running around dancing, annoying people, stealing things, so much fun.
Ideal Lineup? AC DC, Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5, Oscar Peterson, Garth Brooks, Gunners, Roni Size, Ravi Shakar.
