Come the April/May cusp, GTM is looking forward to sharing some of the freshest sonic produce from favourite home-grown acts to international imports when returning to its much loved four regional towns as well as the Nation’s capital.
From Flume, Tame Impala, The Temper Trap and Seth Sentry to Example (UK), The Kooks (UK), Tegan and Sara (CAN) and The Bronx (USA), the GTM community of 75,000 from across the country are in for a premium shindig.
Just one year shy of celebrating its 10th birthday and with a history of sell-out events, in 2013 GTM’s five shows will again be ready to cater for all ages (16+ recommended). In the market fresh words of GTM Promoter Stephen Halpin, “After six months of planning, it’s always an exciting time when the GTM line-up is finally revealed. Again we’ve assembled a great bunch of exciting new acts and festival favourites. We’re very excited to be hosting They Might Be Giants’ first visit to Australia in a long while.”
With over 26 artists set to feature on the GTM double outdoor stages and in the Moolin Rouge big top tent, the festival will also again provide local food stalls abundant with fresh produce of the culinary variety and markets filled with knick knacks, licensed bar facilities, slingshot rides and chill out areas which all collide together to complete a premium recipe.
In the wise words of Will Rogers, “An onion can make people cry but there’s never been a vegetable that can make people laugh.”
However, a pineapple comes pretty close. Speaking of…to turn a colloquialism, a couple pineapples ($99.90 + bf) will help secure your tickets when they go on-sale from 9am local time on Tuesday 5 February (Maitland & Canberra) and Wednesday 6 February (Bendigo, Townsville & Bunbury).
Line-up (28)
