Following a successful debut year, regional music festival Land of Plenty have announced it will be back bigger and better in 2020.
Last year, the brand new all-ages music festival stamped its debut with a mega lineup of national talent, including hip hop superstar Illy, Sydney coast boys Ocean Alley, alongside Briggs, Alex The Astronaut, Slowly Slowly, Ocean Grove, Tones and I, Eliott, DRMNGNOW, Jack Botts, Heard Instinct Collective, Pick of the Crop winner, Charlie Mccosh and straight fire sets from killer DJs.
Returning to the Shepparton Showgrounds on Saturday 31st October (Melbourne Cup Weekend and Halloween), the festival promises to once again feature a stack of all-star bands and artists, plus a truly wholesome and exciting atmosphere for music-lovers of all ages. There is no word yet on who’ll be gracing the lineup for 2020, but all we know is there’ll be a diverse range of genres from hip hop, through to rock and indie, with the all-star headlining acts featuring loads of times in previous triple j Hottest 100 countdowns.
This good news comes in the midst of an uncertain time in the music industry and is exactly what we needed right now!
“In response to the COVID-19 virus and the Federal Government’s ban on public gatherings, and in these unpredictable times, we want fans, music lovers and festival-goers to have something to look forward to,” the festival have revealed.
“As such, if it is safe and approved to do so, Land of Plenty will go ahead on Saturday 31st October and we can’t wait to welcome everyone to Shepparton for a day of music, dancing and fun times. For now let’s do everything we can to stay safe, look after each other and help each other through these challenging times. Keep on washing your hands, turn up the music and don’t forget to keep grooving, dancing and smiling (while social distancing)”.
It’s set to be a huge day and tickets are sure to be snapped up quicker than ever. Keep up to date with announcements via the festival website.
