Electric Gardens Is Sydney's Brand New Summer Music Festival
With one legendary headliner as their Weapon of Choice.
Rather than sitting home and mourning the death of Big Day Out this Australia Day, you can spend your time recovering from a brand new boutique festival. Titled Electric Gardens and channelling the park-based electronica popularised by Parklife and Listen Out, the event will take over Centennial Park on the first day of the Australia Day long weekend — Saturday, January 23.
Electric Gardens' organisers have made the first lineup announcement this morning, with one Fatboy Slim leading the charge. Just lately the electro legend has been indulging in Random Acts of Smileyness. Fingers-crossed this smileyness continues at Electric Gardens. Joining the Weapon of Choice at the festival will be John Digweed and James Zabiela, so it’s all looking very much like a star-studded DJ affair. Gates will open at midday and stay that way until 10pm.
To score the best possible ticket price, get in quick. By way of celebrating its inauguration, Electric Gardens is offering a super-limited, early-bird release. Sign up to the festival’s website and you’ll be able to nab a $99 ticket before general sales start on October 1. You’ll also get first notice as further lineup announcements are made. We’re being promised “many more international DJs”.
Electric Gardens comes to Centennial Parklands on Saturday, January 23 from midday to 10pm. Head to the website for more info.
