HSU Events: Firstly, HSU would like to thank everyone for being patient these last few days. We hope you have been practicing good hygiene and enjoying the music we all love.

We have been working around the clock with key Stakeholders, including the Government & NSW Health to work out the current situation for Midnight Mafia 2020. The safety and well-being of our patrons is paramount at all our events.

In response to the recent developments re: Covid-19, the Government has made the decision to ban all events with more than 500 people until June, and mandate 14 day self-isolation for all International arrivals into Australia. Therefore we are postponing Midnight Mafia 2020.

We will be working on the new date this week, and all current tickets to Midnight Mafia will still be valid for the new date.

However we understand that some people may want refunds now, so they are available for those who have digital tickets by clicking the link below and filling out the Ticketbooth form – http://bit.ly/mmrefunds

If you hold a physical ticket (purchased through a promoter) and would like a refund, these will be made available from this Friday. We are working with our promoters to organise the quickest & easiest way to facilitate this, so they will be able to update you as soon as we have a plan in place that works for everyone.
