As the dust settles from the huge launch of Sydney’s newest one-day festival Sydney City Limits, the inevitable question of sideshows was bound to arise. It’s an understandable query, as the team behind Splendour In The Grass and Falls Festival managed to put together a line-up stacked with some of the most sought after artists on the planet right now for their latest outing.
The festival itself is designed as a celebration of everything that is great about the Harbour City, but in the spirit of giving: we’re sharing the love.
Ranging from The Libertines’ first ever shows on Australian soil, through to homegrown heroes The Avalanches, buzz band Car Seat Headrest, Seattle’s indie-pop gems The Head and the Heart, and so-hot-right-now Scandinavian hero Sigrid, there’s something for every music lover in this dazzling array of extracurricular activity. Taking place across several states and hitting some iconic venues – these shows will provide the perfect antidote to any Sydney City Limits related FOMO.
