About Trough X Sydney

Trough X Sydney is the current identity of 273 Crown Street, the long-running queer nightlife building formerly home to TRADE and Headquarters. Reimagined across four levels, it combines underground dance floors and bars with dedicated cruising and play spaces, carrying the site's sex-positive history into a new era. Regular public trading centres on Friday and Saturday nights, with additional Sunday sessions and one-off promoters using the venue for dance, fetish and men-focused events. The crowd and access rules can vary by event: some nights are broadly queer, while particular lower play levels or parties may be men-only. Check the ticket listing and dress guidance before going.

Went Saturday night after hitting the clubs at 11pm was alright. Not very busy but the crowd was diverse and mostly respectful. Something for everyone. Guys on front desk were friendly so not sure why theres a few complaints. Had fun for $35. Two levels are open. Third one closed for renovations.

I used to really enjoy this venue when it was Headquarters. When it initially changed hands, there were pretty people on the counter at the door, but they gave a lot of attitude, and didn't do simple things like give you a container without you having to ask. That was a big change. You don't want attitude when you're asking for something that is fairly customary at these kind of venues. I've continued to give the venue a chance when around, and I think the customer service has improved quite a bit, but attendance seems to be still be way down. It's a shame, as it's not a bad venue. Was disappointed to hear they are putting a nightclub upstairs. I liked the set up.

this place is a rip-off, me and my partner went in at 11pm, charged $50 for entry, then we purchased some "Leather cleaner" and they did now tell how much and tiled the efps screen so I did not see the price when I used my card and I was charged $75, there was only 3 guy in the whole place. it used to be packed before lockout, Im sure they get packed during Mardi Gras and NYE but so is every place in that area. Does the Manger even read the review before replying, were in this review did I say I got a Private room ??????

This type of venue is precious to Sydney. Unfortunately the way it's being run is outrageous. Hopefully he sells out soon and someone can revitalise it before it's too late. Just a continual rip off , all other reviews here are on the mark, do not waste your money. It's not a one off complaint. Barcode is dead as an "event", I've been many times, and again recently, attendance used to be in the hundreds, in general in 2022 there's maybe 20 at best. Full of potential just needs a new owner !
