Churchill’s Tavern is a Sydenham live music pub operating on the site of the 1882 Club Hotel. One of the few live music rooms to survive the Canterbury earthquake sequence, it hosts international touring acts in rock, punk, and metal alongside local shows.
Flashback to an oddball booking on December 2011 at the then-new Dux Central comprised of the whimsical French for Rabbit, boisterous Hatemen and the always good Undercurrents.

Flashback to November 16th 2011 with an epic fundraising show at the Thunderdome, a temporary venue that was erected at North Hagley Park.

The old Canterbury University Students Association building (back when it was based at the Christchurch Arts Centre) which became a wonderful multi-use venue in 1978. Housing a terrific vegetarian restaurant that opens out to the Arts Center courtyard, a lively public bar that always bristled with live music, enjoyed by locals and travels alike, plus an additional private venue and offices up stairs. The Dux was an institution in Christchurch until the Earthquakes struck in 2010/2011.
