Hobart's going to give Sydney Festival a run for its money come January, as it's taken over by over 200 artists for the Museum of Old and New Art's annual arts and music festival, MONA FOMA aka MOFO. Be party of the Tassie music party with big acts like Paul Kelly, Amanda Palmer, Flying Lotus and more unusual artists from across the musical spectrum and around the globe visiting Hobart from January 11-20.
The season for outdoor celebration with a sick soundtrack is upon us. Our city heaves with music-loving throngs as fans make pilgrimages to temporary party pockets throughout Sydney and beyond in summer. There's plenty to love, from line-ups that champion the new and local, like the DIY-loving Nag Nag Nag and Campbelltown's Out of Bounds festival, to sparkly New Year's Eve blowouts and EDM spectaculars. So fire up your group message and get tickets for the whole gang, because here's everything you need to know about music festival season.
