One of Australia’s most unique festivals is set to return over the October long weekend – and boy is this line-up worth packing the tent for.
The rumours have been running riot for months, but finally we have the announcement we have all been waiting for............The Great Escape festival is coming!!
They haven’t been to oz for nearly four years, but brit-pop survivors, Supergrass will be heading up the bill alongside the godfather of everything that came out of the 90’s, Pixies front-man, Black Francis.

and there is so much much more to come!
The Great Escape festival is more than music though, there will be a whole world of wonderful weirdness to explore over the 52 hectares (yes that’s right ) of hills, woodlands, bunkers and ancient buildings that is the Newington Armory. It is an absolutely fanciful weekend of much debauchery not to missed people!
