Goat Island Sounds 2017
Sydney Harbour's Goat Island is set to go off with the return of its Australia Day holiday festival.
Overview
The shard of rock in the harbour that houses the old Queen's Magazine is set to blow up with a slew of local tunes and eats when Goat Island Sounds takes over on Thursday, January 26. Come Australia Day, it'll be your very own island in the sun.
Of course, the main attractions are the sounds, and they are pretty solid with appearances from triple j DJ Nina Las Vegas, and one of Australia's more sought after artists, Ngaiire. The lineup also includes a heap more of local talent, including Basenji, Kuren, Adi Toohey and Ariane.
Festival food is almost as important as the music these days, so rather than settle for the classic dagwood dog or overly-salted chips with lashings of tomato sauce, the festival is splashing out with the sustenance as food will be provided by the crew from sneaker-and-chicken connoisseurs Butter and Glebe's modern Lebanese joint Thievery.
