MyGig in Newtown: King Street, Enmore Road and the gig calendar.
Newtown’s strip runs unbroken from the university end of King Street down to Enmore Road, and it is one of the few in Sydney where a Tuesday night is a real night. Pubs with band rooms, cafes that queue at 8am, and a run of theatres and live venues on the Enmore end give the suburb a calendar of its own, with the Newtown Festival and the theatre seasons on top. MyGig covers Newtown from the Sydney pool, our deepest, for bar, cafe, kitchen and venue shifts.
MyGig is the authorised Employer of Record, operating in NSW, WA, TAS and NT. Businesses post shifts and pay one flat 15% service fee on wages and on-costs; workers are employed by MyGig, priced against the correct Modern Award with the clause cited, and paid the day after every shift.
Part of MyGig Sydney.
