Melbourne's hailed-by-promoters as the 'most progressive music and arts festival', Sugar Mountain returns in 2015, moving to a new location this January: the Victorian College of the Arts.
To accompany their return, Nas will perform 'Illmatic', his celebrated 1994 album, in full.
In 2013, the creative minds behind Sugar Mountain partnered with The Mushroom Group to put into practice the vision they shared since the inaugural festival of 2011. Eighteen months later, Melbourne's VCA will play host to the wide array of music and art for a variety of punters to enjoy, and with ticket sales capped at 5,500, the festival still aims to keep things intimate.
