Selina’s at the Coogee Bay Hotel has been the premiere live music venue in Sydney’s East for decades, playing host to past legends such as Powderfinger, Nirvana and Midnight Oil as well as stars of today like The Preatures, Ocean Alley, Hockey Dad and so many more.

Along with being a place for both rising stars cutting their teeth in the industry and outright legends, it’s where memories are made for punters coming both locally and from far away, providing a space to enjoy such a wide variety of acts in an incredible local venue.

The owners of the CBH have other ideas however. In place of this iconic local theatre, they plan to build a car park, shopping centre and row of cafes - as if Coogee didn’t have enough of those.

Whilst businesses are free to do what they will with their property, this petition asks that some of the $112 million being put into this rebuild be allocated to ensuring there is still a space for live music and culture to continue thriving in the East. Let’s keep the show going on.
