Open Dawn is a Perth live entertainment and media company: a live music booking agency, a production crew and a media team in one. We put musicians and DJs in rooms, produce events, and film all of it, because a great night deserves to outlive the night.
Live entertainment is not a cost centre. Run properly, it's the best marketing a venue has.
Most live music is booked one gig at a time: a musician gets paid, a room enjoys itself, and by the next morning there's nothing to show for it. We think that wastes the best part. The room was full of moments worth sharing, and nobody caught them.
So we treat entertainment as a system rather than a series of one-offs. The performers are booked and briefed properly. The night is produced properly. And the whole thing is filmed, cut and published, so every gig sells the next one. When the night works harder, everyone wins: the venue, the performer and the crowd.
That thinking runs through everything on this site: the weekly venue packages, the media production and the events.
150+ bookings, less than a 1% cancellation rate. Reliability is the whole product in this industry; everything else is built on top of it.
Week to week, no lock-in contracts, first gig free. If something stops paying for itself, you should be free to stop it. We'd rather earn the next week than sign you into it.
Booking, production, filming, editing and publishing under one roof. When one team owns the whole chain, nothing gets lost in a handover.
Open Dawn is run by Yannai Goldberg. When you call, that's who answers. Direct, straightforward, and honest about what we can and can't do for your room.
We work with pubs, bars and venues right across the Perth metro area, from the northern suburbs like Alkimos and Scarborough through to the wider city.
The easiest way to understand Open Dawn is to watch a night happen in your own room. The first gig is free.
