I’m sure I’m not the only person who’s mad excited about this year’s Splendour in the Grass at Woodfordia, Queensland. The line-up is absolutely brilliant this year. My top picks: The Strokes, The Temper Trap, Mumford & Sons, Goldfrapp, Hot Chip, Fat Freddy’s Drop, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Delphic and Two Door Cinema Club. I hear that people are flying in to Australia just for the festival. Some are claiming that the line-up is bigger/better than this year’s Glastonbury. Imagine!
Tickets will be released in the next few days: 9AM, 6th May. I would expect that all 30,000 tickets will be sold out within the first couple of hours, no doubt. As with most big festivals, people will be camped out behind their computers half-an-hour before release time just to make sure they can get their grubby hands on a couple of those coveted $400 tickets.
Splendour just stirred things up by introducing a Twitter Ticket Hunt to the mix. They would be releasing location clues on @SITG on Twitter in the next few days. First person to figure out the clues and get to the location, wins a double pass! The first clue for Brisbane Splendour-ites was released just a couple of minutes ago:
Splendour in the Grass: Twitter Ticket Hunt
Looks like it’s going to be harder than I thought. Still, I’m excited for the Twitter Ticket Hunt to find its way to Melbourne. You can be sure I’ll be putting my riddle-solving skills to the test. Fingers and toes crossed!
