About The World Bar

The World Bar has been one of Sydney's most beloved alternative venues since 1998, providing Kings Cross with a music-focused space that champions indie, rock, and alternative programming in a neighbourhood better known for its more commercial entertainment options. The venue's multi-level layout includes bars and a dance floor, and its Teapot Tuesday parties — where drinks are served in teapots — have become a Sydney institution. World Bar represents the unpretentious, community-focused end of Sydney's nightlife.

History

The World Bar opened in 1998 in Kings Cross, Sydney's most notorious entertainment district, and quickly became a sanctuary for the area's alternative community. Its survival through the gentrification of Kings Cross and the suburb's dramatic transformation speaks to the loyalty of its audience.
