Draft:Sydney Trade Union Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sydney Trade Union Club was a Sydney music venue during the 1980s at 111 Foveaux Street, Surry Hills.[1][2]

The Sydney Trade Union Club was opened in 1947 to serve the Federated Ironworkers' Association and the Hotel, Club and Restaurant Employees Union. Membership was later opened up to any member of an ACTU affiliated union. The original premises were located in a George Street building owned by the Ironworkers' Association.[3] In 1957 an application was made to convert the 111 Foveaux Street premises to house the club.[4]
