Soundwave 2015 will be a 2-day festival held over the last two weekends of March 2015.
Promoter AJ Maddah only allowed a couple of days oxygen to the 2015 Big Day Out hiatus news before issuing a running press release via Twitter on the massively popular heavy festival.
So here's the deal: SW15 will be held over 2 days in each city - Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane. #SW15 Please RT — AJ (@iamnotshouting) June 28, 2014He went on to say — in bursts of 140 characters or fewer:
“Adelaide & Melbourne will be the 1st weekend of the festival. The dates for these 2 cities are Saturday 21 and Sunday 22. Sydney and Brisbane will be the 2nd weekend of the festival; held over Saturday 28 and Sunday March 1.”
"The ticket price for the 2 days will be the same as last year. $185 + booking fees. These will be limited in number."
"I am hoping that offering day tickets will make festival experience available to those who may not be able to afford weekend tickets. #SW15"
"Putting the line-up across 2 days enables us to minimise clashes; give bands longer sets, better staging, production & infrastructure #SW15"
"I am also hoping that this will give fans better value for money and a less stressful day. #SW15"
"I'd like to sincerely thank SFX Stereosonic who blazed the trail on this 2 day festival caper in Aus & provided advice & guidance."
"In recent years we have lost great bands over too many bands wanting to play after dark. This new set-up also gives us twice the dark! #SW15"
