The live music scene for 2021 continues to get bigger and better as we’re getting a bangin’ new Summer Sounds Festival series.
2020 may have started off pretty poorly for everyone but it seems like we’re ending it on a musically-charged high because we’ve got a new concert series coming to Adelaide: the Summer Sounds Festival.
This new series of SA Health approved live shows will take over Adelaide’s Bonython Park from December 30th to January 30th and will feature an absolutely corker of a lineup.
Seriously, this concert series will feature artists including Ruel, festival faves Lime Cordiale, Ball Park Music, Ocean Alley, Ruby Fields, Bernard Fanning, Something For Kate, The Veronicas, Mallrat, Spiderbait, Dune Rats, The Chats, Will Sparks, The Jungle Giants, and many more talented acts.
Now since social distancing is something that needs to be adhered to, tickets to Summer Sounds will be sold in “party pod” bookings of four to six people.
These party pods will be socially distanced and are available in VIP, Gold, and Silver packages. Festivalgoers can also pre-order refreshments, which will be delivered to their pod on the day. Deets and lineup info are at the bottom of this article.
The announcement of the Summer Sounds Festival caps off a fantastic couple of weeks in which not one, not two, but four other festivals have been confirmed for 2021.
