It’s getting colder by the day in the northern hemisphere, but in the southern hemisphere, things are just starting to heat up. This weekend in Port Macquarie, Australia the Festival of the Sun will commence Friday the 9th with camping, cricket, and live dance rock.

Presented by Triple J, Southern Cross Ten, Drum Media, and Time off & Focus, Festival of the Sun will be held at Sundowner Breakwall Tourist Park. The event is BYO…which leaves much room for interpretation, and 18+. If you were planning to go and didn’t get tix yet, better luck next year as the festival is already sold out. Considering that Australia may as well have been made for music festivals, with its beautiful coastlines, expansive landscapes, and Barbeque, this isn’t too much of a shock. But this ain’t no Australia tourism advert – let’s check out this lineup:
