About

I kept finding out about the good stuff after it happened

And when I couldn't find a place that pulled everything together into one place, I decided to build it myself. With that, Under the Flight Path was born.

Hey neighbour, I'm Seb. I've lived in the Inner West for over ten years, and for most of them I'd hear about a great market, gig or pop-up only after it had been and gone.

It wasn't that nothing was happening. It was just too hard to keep up with Instagram stories, Facebook groups, council pages, venue websites, and social apps. Moreover, nobody was putting it in one place for the Inner West.

"Each week I pull together what's actually worth knowing about the weekend ahead, and it lands on Friday morning."

Events, live music, markets, kids' activities, new places to eat and drink, and transport disruptions affecting the Inner West. It's free, and it'll stay that way.

How a Friday edition gets made

A bit of automation, a lot of picking.

Check, check and check again

Venue sites, council listings and community boards are checked daily, so the calendar stays current and nothing slips through.

Pick newsletter listings, by hand

I go through over 400 scheduled weekend events every week and choose what I'd actually tell a friend about. That's the part that AI or a search result can't give you.

Send, Friday morning

It lands before you've made weekend plans, with my editorial picks, kids' activities, live music and anything else likely to interest you.

A few things I promise

So you know where you stand.

  • Free to read, always. Listing an event is free too.
  • Sponsored events are always labelled. My editorial picks can't be bought.
  • Your email is never sold. Privacy, in plain English.
  • Spot a mistake? Tell me. Corrections get fixed fast.
