This is addressed to anyone with a flare for running an inner-Sydney nightclub with an enviable reputation for throwing great parties and hosting sublime gigs. If this describes you, you may want to look into acquiring Sydney’s Goodgod Small Club, which just officially came on the market.
After five years of building the beloved Sydney music space into what it is today, owners Jimmy Sing and Hana Shimada have taken to Facebook to announce that they will be moving onto other projects and are putting Goodgod and its Danceteria up for sale.
In their state, Sing and Shimada make it clear that the sale of Goodgod has nothing to do with the city’s infamous lockout laws, which have claimed numerous night spots since they were introduced, including Hugos, Soho, The Flinders, and Q Bar.
Instead, Sing and Shimada write that they’re handing the Goodgod keys over to someone else so that they can “explore other creative projects, perhaps involving a little more daylight”. If you’re into some really antisocial work hours, this could be your dream gig.
The owners are on the lookout for “entrepreneurs with vision who believe they have the know-how, passion and resources to acquire the venue and evolve the legacy of this great place”. Speaking to Inthemix, Sing elaborated on the qualities Goodgod’s new owner must have.
“We don’t know who we’ll discover [but] we know lots of people have a passion and declared support for the fun and open-minded nightlife in Sydney that we represent, so we’d imagine it would be a no brainer that a new owner would be motivated to keep the music going,” he said.
The good news for the venue’s dedicated punters is that the venue will remain open as it goes through the motions of transitioning into new ownership. There’s even one more blowout planned for the venue’s fifth birthday party next month.
To our Goodgod massive,We, Jimmy & Hana, have decided that after 5 amazing years of running Goodgod, the time has come…
