Parcels

Goldenvoice presents Parcels: Portola After Party on Saturday, September 26, bringing the Australian-born, Berlin-based band to San Francisco for a late-night performance with Velvet Trip. Doors open at 9:00 p.m., with the show beginning at 10:00 p.m., making this a natural fit for concertgoers looking to keep the night going after a day of music and events. The show is 21 and over.

Originally formed in Byron Bay, Australia, in 2014, Parcels have developed an international identity that reflects the band’s geographically split roots. Today, members Louie Swain, Patrick Hetherington, Noah Hill, Anatole “Toto” Serret, and Jules Crommelin operate between Australia and Berlin, Germany, bringing together their different musical perspectives as a five-piece.

Parcels have built a substantial audience through their recordings and energetic live performances, surpassing one billion streams and selling out Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in 2024. Their continued growth has been accompanied by new music and an ongoing commitment to expanding what the band can do onstage. For attendees, that makes the live setting a central part of the appeal: this is an opportunity to experience the full five-member lineup in a dedicated after-party environment rather than simply hearing the band through a recording.

The late start also gives the evening its own character. With doors at 9:00 p.m. and music beginning at 10:00 p.m., Parcels: Portola After Party is designed for a night that stretches well beyond the traditional concert schedule. Velvet Trip joins the bill, giving the evening an additional live act before Parcels take the stage.

The event is strictly 21+, and guests should be prepared to show a valid, physical government-issued photo ID where required for entry and alcohol purchases. School IDs, expired IDs, photographs or photocopies, and digital IDs will not be accepted. Ticket prices may fluctuate based on demand, and guests who need accessible accommodations should contact the venue if accessible tickets are unavailable.

For San Francisco audiences, the Parcels after party offers a chance to close out Saturday night with a band whose international journey, growing catalog, and reputation as a live act have made them a notable presence in contemporary music. With Velvet Trip opening and Parcels following at 10:00 p.m., the evening is set up for a full night of live music and late-night energy.
