Music

Join us tonight for the 2018 School Bar awards!

This evening we continue the tradition of celebrating the bands, labels, shows, people, etc. that stood out amongst the rest during the concluding year, as well as some other fun awards! Expect good times, laughter, and an irresponsible amount of alcohol.

Of course, what would the evening be without music! One of the bands that left the biggest impression on School Bar last year are Tomorrow Wanted from Chengdu. With a bluesy funk type of vibe with a Red Hot Chilli Peppers result, we had to invite them back to School Bar on this big night.
Also set to play are a handful of bands that win awards throughout the evening.

One of the most important nights of the year at School Bar!
Not to be missed, join us!

Free!
