Sunshine and Lollypops - Splendour Promises a Delicious Line up


Squeals of delight filled the 101.5fm station when the Splendour in the Grass line up was  announced. Ok those squeals may just have come from me, but that didn’t stop the excitement spreading.

Judging by Splendour's website, this years event looks set to be a sensory overload. 

Local and international bands promise to make this years event bigger and better then ever. There’s music for everyone! 

81 acts across three stages! This years trifecta? Splendour is at Woodfordia over three days. Just around the corner!

When is it? Ok, Splendour starts on 29 June and finish on Sunday 31. 

Now for the serious stuff - avoid being ripped off! Be sure to purchase your tickets from the official outlet. 

Tickets are not transferable and are connected to a particular person, their details are included in the ticket and matching identification must be presented at the gate. No match, no entry!

What’s left to do now? Mark the date on your calendar and get ready to have a blast!

Make sure you check out Splendours home page, even if it is just for the delectable art - http://splendourinthegrass.com
