Legion Festival Reveal First Line-up And Launch Pozible Campaign

Legion Festival
National Music Editor, based in Brisbane, Australia.
'Passionate about true crime docos, the Swannies, golf and sleep, I’ve been writing about music for 20-plus years. What I’ve learnt? There’s two types of music – good and bad.’

Legion Festival, the event labelled the replacement to Soundwave, have revealed the first acts who will play the fan-funded metal festival.


To celebrate here’s just a FEW of the acts we have locked in to be part of Legion Fest 2016!

Each of these bands have offered their truly amazing support and are ready to get loud and sweaty on the Legion stages. Please know, we have many more set to announce and are very excited to bring you a complete line-up, including headliners as soon as possible, this is just the start!

For now let’s welcome the following bands on board this wild ride with us, and REMEMBER this can only happen with your pledge to attend so we can all rock out together!

Devil You Know
Darkest Hour
Battlecross
Caligula's Horse
Darkc3ll
Rick Dangerous And The Silkie Bantems

The event has also launched its Pozible campaign today, with organisers hoping to raise $3,275,00 – organisers won't be able to access the cash raised until the entire pledge is reached.

At the time of writing, the campaign had already raised more than $40,000. “Our number one goal with Legion Music Fest is to be able to establish an ongoing event driven by you, the fans as well as the artists, and produce it in a sustainable way so it will always be there for us.

“This groundbreaking way of funding major music festivals is a true collaboration between the artists, the fans and the production team to do something great.

“With transparency across the entire planning process and open communication with the fans throughout, the events can be tailored in a way never before seen, truly giving the power back to heavy music lovers in Australia. We have strength in numbers. We are LEGION.”

 

Nice place for a festival... #legionmusicfest #wearelegion
