TRANSGENRE
February 2026
TRANSGENRE is Australia’s biggest grassroots initiative celebrating music from trans and non-binary artists – and this February, they’re taking over the Metro Social to shine a spotlight on the best and brightest among them.
Every Wednesday night in February, the Metro Social will shapeshift into a wonderland of trans excellence, where the future stars of Australian pop, rock, metal and indie will ensure the good vibes flow at maximum velocity. This is the first-ever Euphoria Month: four life-affirming concerts, all free to enter, and all stacked from top to bottom with one-of-a-kind talents.
ABOUT METRO A.i.R
We’re working with some of Australia’s favourite artists, labels, agencies, collectives and promoters to bring you FREE events every Wednesday night for the next 12 months.
Each week, Metro A.i.R will showcase a diverse range of free events and performances, providing a platform for both emerging and established artists to shine.
Join us as we bring back magical mid-week vibes to the heart of Sydney City✨
