Archie Party 2025

Experience the Art Gallery of New South Wales like never before with a one-night-only art party celebrating contemporary art, music and food from some of the best artists, musicians and food stalls that Sydney has to offer.

Now in its fourth year, Archie Party 2025 will feature all-night access to the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman Prizes 2025 exhibition with a live music line-up co-produced with Australia-wide collective Kerfew.

Headlined by Jaubi, an instrumental group from Lahore, Pakistan, performers include LA-based singer-songwriter and producer Gayathri Krishnan plus DJ sets from Kerfew's Kafi, Jhassic, and Munasib. Also, enjoy interactive art experiences and artist talks by Archibald finalists Sassy Park and Mostafa Azimitabar.

There'll be pop-up bars and delicious eats to buy from MasterChef alumni Sarah Tiong and Rashedul 'Rashie' Hasan's OGNI, Kabir Singh's Pocket Rocketz, Miss Pearl Bar + Dining, MOD, Crafted by Matt Moran, and Mapo Gelato.

A free shuttle bus will run from the Art Gallery to Central Station between 9pm and 11.30pm.

Archie Party 2025 is a collaboration between the Art Gallery of New South Wales and Kerfew.

Kerfew is a creative collective of South Asian artists, musicians, designers and broadcasters who use art as a vehicle to explore, reimagine, share and celebrate the cultures and stories that are shaped by the uniquely Australian South Asian diaspora experience.
