WHERE TO STAY FOR RNB FRIDAYS LIVE?
The only thing better than attending the biggest party in Australia is having somewhere closeby to crash after, where you and your gang can keep the good times rollin' and stave off the sad, post-show comedown.
As luck would have it, we have YHAs in every city RNB Fridays Live will be poppin’ off, and all are super close to the action!
- Perth – Perth City YHA – a four-minute drive or 17-minute walk from HBF Park.

- Brisbane – Brisbane City YHA – an 11-minute drive from Brisbane Showgrounds.
- Sydney – Sydney Central YHA – a 25-minute drive from Giants Stadium (or check out our Sydney surrounds hostels for other, equally central options).
We've got fun multi-share rooms if your group is after the ultimate slumber party, and double ensuite private rooms if you and your S.O. are looking to treat yo'selves after a dazzling night out.
We've also got great facilities such as a fab pool and sauna at Sydney Central YHA (for Morning After recovery) and a brand spankin' new rooftop bar at Brisbane City YHA (for pre-drinks with a stunning view!)
Book your stay with us – and you’re free to follow The Black Eyed Peas' advice and absolutely Pump It, knowing your comfy bed isn’t far away. Don't wait too long though!
WHAT NOW?
Rally the troops, get your tickets, book your crash pad at YHA, then all that’s left to do is frost your tips, perfect your running man and practise the important lyrics you'll need to scream, from “Jason Deruuuuuuuuulo” to “that thong, thong, thong, thong, thong.”
See ya on the other side!
