In the heart of Murwillumbah; a venue to bring artists, poets, musicians, and their audience together

Since it’s sale and decommissioning from The Salvation Army in 1984, The Citadel has attracted artists and musicians as residents and performers. When we took the reins in 2008 the building required emergency renovations and much love as all heritage buildings require, and some adaption to become a licenced venue, fit for it’s new purpose. In the spirit of it’s build in 1920, we honour the building's legacy by returning music to its stage, and creating a hub for all artists and lovers of art to share.

This is why our Singer Songwriter night is so important…
Please support Live Grassroots Australian music.

APRA AMCOS has unveiled its annual Year In Review report, with news of record revenues being paired with a startling drop in the amount of local content being consumed by Australians.

This year's Annual Report has noted that a whopping 91% of the music streamed by Australians in the 2026 financial year was imported. It's an even worse story in New Zealand, where international content sits at 96%.

This time around, local content has seen a massive decline of 37.5% across five years to just 8.5%, while UGC has dropped to 3.6% in Australia, representing a drop of roughly 28% in actual streams since the previous financial year.

There are some positives however, including record revenue for the organisation AND an increase in payments to member that's outpaced their own revenue.

They're also reporting record high international revenue, specifically citing Tame Impala and Ninajirachi's success on the world stage.

Regarding Yvonne Whear’s disappearance. We have been requested to put the word out-
Yvonne went missing on the night of Thursday Feb 19th.
The Citadel held our Singer Songwriter night on that same evening, which would have finished around 10pm-it was a busy night with 84+ attendees. (See poster below with performers listed).
If you came that night, (or if you know anyone that might have) and if you have dashcam and drove via Dungay please can you check your dashcam history-Feb 19.
Yvonne’s car was seen at around 8.30pm parked on the left hand of Dungay Creek Road near Tomewin Road at Dungay.
