Fresh Produce
A new regional concert series from the team behind Groovin the Moo.
Overview
Sad but predictable news for music festival fans and regional Australians came through on Thursday, February 4 when Groovin the Moo promoter Cattleyard Promotions confirmed the regional festival would not go ahead in 2021, citing current government restrictions and uncertainty around the future.
It's not all bad news though, with the announcement of a smaller regional touring festival in Groovin's place. Fresh Produce is the new concert series designed to exist within the ever-changing government regulations surrounding events and running in regional towns across eight weekends through August, September and October.
In Queensland, Fresh Produce will be taking over the Toowoomba Showgrounds on Friday, September 3 and Saturday, September 4. It's also heading to Townsville on Friday, August 13 and Saturday, August 14 if you want to make the (long) road trip up north.
The lineup differs city-to-city, but across all eight cities, patrons will be treated to Triple J favourites Lime Cordiale, Mallrat, Cosmo's Midnight and G Flip, Hottest 100 runner-ups Spacey Jane, as well as Western Sydney rap sensation Hooligan Hefs. Joining them will be an exciting collection of young local acts specific to each city.
Fresh Produce is partially funded by the Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Government initiative that also assisted Splendour in the Grass organisers Secret Sounds to run their new socially-distanced events Summer Sounds.
