Southbound organisers have this to say about the 2016 event:
Camping next to cars, three nights of programming plus a brand new night to kick things off – Friday Night Fever, where it’s all about the fancy dress get up – our dance-off comp and having an awesome opening night party in an intimate capped capacity.
Start dreaming of summer days where you’re free to slow down, steal sunshine and get naughty-cool. Time spent with friends [old and new] – a summer that is about good times, great company and tropical vibes.
The Southbound ticket pre-sales will be happening from 9am AWST 5 August. General ticket sales will commence at 9am AWST 10 August.
