Factory Theatre - Marrickville, New South Wales

Went to The Factory to see Iniko and was great! I didn't expect much in terms of gluten free options so we ate beforehand and we found parking a street or two away in front of the Marrickville Public School so it was a relatively short walk from there. There was a bit a queue lining up to go in and so if the weather isn't brilliant bring an umbrella in case you're standing in lines outside waiting to get in because you will be standing in the rain. Once in the venue there an area outside the main hall that is like vendor trucks the covers overhead drip a bit so again, umbrella ? ? . Inside is a bar with some cocktail and on tap selections. Unfortunately I only saw Pringles available to purchase inside which whilst delicious aren't gluten free so if you need gf I'd eat out beforehand and bring any snacks with you. First on support act was Shanae who was fantastic and then Iniko came out and although surprisingly tiny ? and Unfortunately was not very well performed brilliantly and thoroughly enjoyed it. The area is not too large and great for a more intimate performance - wasn't that hard to find, or park, but it was a miserable evening and could potentially have very limited parking for any larger scale event. I loved the great graffiti murals in the venue and in the streets on our walk to and from the car too. Cocktails were $18 mostly but enjoyed my mule.

The Factory Theatre is a small but awesome venue, perfect for all kinds of events. Whether you're there for a concert or a comedy show, it always packs a punch! The intimate setting makes every event feel up close and personal. It's the kind of place where you won't tap out early—definitely worth checking out.

Lovely venue with options to enjoy a multitude of shows. Good vibes and a friendly place for new acts.
Staff were friendly and lively too.
Food carts in the venue are a nice touch for a quick bite.

Went to Ricky Lee Jones and King Stingray here in the past month. Great location fun venue with something good on most of the time. The staff at the venue are always great. Easy to deal with and always helpful with the electronic tickets. Good bar but the food is average.

It was my first time visiting the Factory Theatre yesterday to see Glenn Hughes. It was a great concert. Very nice venue. The outside area is well presented and easy to navigate through. Inside is nice and spacious. The venue was clean and the staff are very pleasant. The crowd was great and there were no problems and no pushy people. Some woman tried to rush the stage at one point but security came out and grabbed her and moved her away before she could get up there. Very professional staff. Thank you for a great concert and I look forward to coming back again soon

Great little venue with an Indie vibe and friendly staff. Watched Kikuo and the whole show, from beginning to end was organised and executed seamlessly. Looking forward to going back to discover other acts.

We visited the Factory Theatre for a Keb’ Mo’ concert. Music and acoustics was great. The bar area upstairs has a good relaxed feel for it, really feels like you’re in a club.

As a whole the venue has an old feel to it. Especially the toilet facilities are old and out dated and need work, but most of the Theatre could really do with an update.
