The BUg BAzAAr is a bold new monthly night of live music in West End. To be held at Mirrorball Ministries on the last Thursday of each month.

It opens with the Dead Song Society – a joyful, stripped-back community singalong.

Two feature acts follow: an intimate acoustic set, then an upbeat, dance-ready band.

Presented by volunteers from The BUg - Brisbane Unlugged Gigs
