Boogie For BayFM

A funky fundraiser

Byron Theatre, 6pm - midnight Jan 20, 2024

Get ready to tear up the dance floor at the inaugural Boogie for BayFM Fundraiser!

For one unmissable night of top-shelf dance music, Byron Shire’s own and only community radio station will transform the Byron Theatre into the hottest club in town.

The stellar line up of BayFM’s resident DJs include:

• Dale Stephen (Solar Love Machine)

• Ria Listic, Balasko, Andrea Jones & Lainie Godiva (Sistas of Spin)

• Sammy KC & Pedro (Funk Me Radio Show)

Our dedicated beat bandits will get your feet pumping for 6 hours of funk, deep house and electro boogie vibes.

Local dance fiends will know Dale Stephen as co-host of the massive monthly ‘Nudge Nudge Wink Wink’ party which has been a Shire staple for 8 years. Dale co-hosts the Solar Love Machine on BayFM every Saturday evening 4pm - 6pm.

Sammy KC & Pedro dig deep into funk, nu funk, disco and nu disco on their Tuesday night Funk Me Radio Show, 10pm - midnight.

Sistas of Spin is a high rotation of outstanding local female DJs playing live to air every Friday night. Ria Listic has been lighting up dance floors with a passion for house music since the late 90’s. Mix Mistress Balasko loves upbeat dance tracks that get your booty shakin’ hard. Wax Addict Andrea Jones spins vinyl classic mixes, and Lainie Godiva sets the pace on the decks.

Tune in live at BayFM 99.9 or anytime at bayfm.org

BayFM is the most easterly station in the nation and has been broadcasting the best beats across the Northern Rivers airwaves for over 30 years. It's 100% independent, volunteer-run and not-for-profit with studios right upstairs from the Byron Theatre.

A non-profit theatre for the local community

The Byron Theatre is part of the Byron Community Centre's not-for-profit social enterprise model. As a social enterprise, tickets to events in our theatre are worth a lot more than their dollar value. This means that funds raised from ticket sales will go towards a good cause and are used to provide services, programs and events that benefit our local community here in Byron Bay. Every time you see an event in our theatre you’re helping us run vibrant and inclusive social and cultural programs for our local community.

A cosy courtyard bar hidden away in the centre of Byron Bay

Situated in our garden courtyard, the Theatre Bar welcomes our patrons to mingle, meet friends and get together before shows and during intermissions. The bar offers light snacks, as well as a great assortment of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Plan to drop by a little earlier and enjoy a drink and a chat. Patrons are welcome to take their drinks into the theatre. The theatre and bar generally opens one hour before every performance.
