A hidden gem for live music in Katoomba
The Blue Mountains is known for its vibrant arts and music scene, and The Factory Bar is proud to support local and touring artists. Our performances range from jazz, blues, folk, and acoustic sets to smooth contemporary and Australian-inspired music.
Unlike large venues, our space is designed to feel personal and connected. You can sit close to the performers, enjoy a conversation between songs, and experience the music in a relaxed and intimate setting.
Many guests describe The Factory Bar as a hidden gem in Katoomba, a place where you can unwind, meet new people, and enjoy live music without the crowds.
Craft spirits, cocktails, and local flavours
Alongside the music, you can explore our range of award-winning craft spirits and cocktails. Every drink is made with care, inspired by the native botanicals and landscape of the Blue Mountains.
Our bar menu includes:
-
Signature gin and vodka classics
-
Seasonal cocktails and collaborations
-
Local beer and wine
-
Non alcoholic options
-
Grazing and bar food designed for sharing
We also feature special collaborations such as Ginger Devil, our alcoholic ginger beer created with Katoomba Brewing Co. It is a favourite among locals and visitors alike.
