Bridgeway Live Teams Up With Yours & Owls, Announces Karnivool Launch Show

Iconic South Australian live music venue Bridgeway Live has named leading live music promoter Yours & Owls as its new booking agent.

Since opening in 1966 as part of Pooraka's Bridgeway Hotel, Bridgeway Live has a long history of supporting live music, with everyone from AC/DC, Cold Chisel and Midnight Oil to The Angels, Iggy Pop and Rose Tattoo having graced the 2022 South Australian Music Hall of Fame-inducted venue.

Lachlan Brookes, Oscars Group South Australia Group Operations Manager, is excited about the new partnership and what's in store for the 1,200-capacity venue.

"This room holds a special place in South Australian music,” says Brookes. "For six decades, artists and fans have shared unforgettable nights here, and this new chapter is about honouring that while welcoming a new generation through the doors.

"Partnering with Yours & Owls means we can bring more premium touring talent to Adelaide's north. Karnivool is just the beginning, and there is plenty more to come in 2027."

Keen to celebrate this new partnership, ARIA Award-winning Perth rockers Karnivool have been announced as the first band to kick off the new era next month with a headline concert at Bridgeway Live on Tuesday 8 December.

As a special thank you to music fans who have filled the room for six decades, every ticket purchased goes in a draw to win a Golden Ticket double pass to every Bridgeway Live show for the next two years, plus a Karnivool merch pack and a bar tab on the night. More tickets mean more entries, so fans are encouraged to round up their mates.

Pre-sale tickets are available at 8am ACDT on Tuesday 10 November, followed by general admission tickets at 8am ACDT on Wednesday 11 November via moshtix.com.au. More information is available at bridgeway.live.

Founded in Wollongong in 2010, Yours & Owls is best known as the team behind the annual Yours & Owls Festival. The company also books venues along the east coast, and their partnership with Bridgeway Live is the promoter's first venture into the South Australian market.

Ben Tillman, Director/Owner of Yours and Owls, says the team is excited to see what the partnership can do.

"Bridgeway Live has a history very few rooms in Australia can match," says Tillman. "We want to build on that and make it a must-play stop for every touring band, and Karnivool is the perfect way to start. We can't wait to show South Australia what this partnership can do."
