Sydney’s summer dance calendar is about to get seriously loud.

Finely Tuned is bringing back THE WORKS, its warehouse-inspired series at Carriageworks on Gadigal Land, with a heavyweight run of international and Australian talent spanning house, techno, trance, garage and everything in between.

The series kicks off with Pegassi on 5 December, before going full throttle over New Year and into January. Armand Van Helden headlines the 31 December blowout, joined by Ewan McVicar, salute and Jayda G for a genre-hopping NYE designed to keep the floor moving well past midnight.

Then comes a rapid-fire January run. Rossi. takes over on 6 January, Sam Alfred and Job Jobse go back-to-back from open to close on 7 January, and Welsh duo Overmono bring their bass-heavy, rave-charged sound on 8 January. Closing the series on 9 January is Amsterdam powerhouse KI/KI, whose acid, hard-trance and high-BPM sets have made her one of the most talked-about names in contemporary club music.

Launched in 2025, THE WORKS has already established itself as one of Sydney’s more ambitious dance platforms, pairing major electronic acts with big-room production while keeping its roots firmly planted in club culture. This summer, it’s back with a simple proposition: bigger rooms, bigger names and very little reason to leave the dancefloor.

Presale for all THE WORKS events commences at 10AM AEST on Tuesday 15 September, before general onsale at 10AM AEST on Wednesday 16 September. Sign-up for presale here.
