Staff Writer

The ballot is now open.

Beck fans — run, don't walk! 

The man himself, who will be performing at this weekend's first-ever Sydney City Limits festival, has just announced a one-off show this Friday night, 23 February, at Sydney's Factory Theatre in Marrickville. Given that this venue has a capacity of only 500 people, it's set to be a very special and intimate gig. 

It's all the luck of the draw to attend as tickets will only be available through a ballot system. Ballot registrations are now open and will close at 12pm on Wednesday, 21 February.

Winners will be chosen at random and will be notified by email by 5pm that day. Entrants must be over 18 and must show photo ID to gain entry. Tickets are limited at a maximum of two per person.
