Established in 2003, from humble beginnings Destroy All Lines has grown to become one of Australia’s largest and most trusted independent concert and festival promoters.
Specialists in rock, punk and metal, but ever expanding, the team of music lovers behind the brand have gone on to promote hundreds of tours by a wide range of artists including Deftones, All Time Low, Tony Hadley (Ex Spandau Ballet), A Day To Remember, Pennywise, One OK Rock, Ugly Kid Joe, Descendents, Pennywise, Primal Scream, Simple Plan, Trivium and The Pogues, alongside a bunch of incredible festivals – even creating some of their own (hello Good Things!).
Now the Aussie promoters are celebrating a huge 20 year milestone this year, putting together 20 Shows for 20 Years showcasing artists they love at Stay Gold in Melbourne in August and September.
The celebration includes just announced shows from Bakers Eddy, Behind Crimson Eyes, D at Sea, Hot Department, John Floreani, Kisstroyer, Masketta Fall, Psycroptic & Will Wagner, which join already announced shows from Be’lakor, Ocean Sleeper, Punk Rock Factory & a pair of Spanish Love Songs gigs. Plus, there will also be six headline shows to be announced very soon.
