Lugar: Marion Bay The Pied Piper of Australian Music Festivals has travelled the many corners of the globe to entice a stupendous ensemble of musicians to The Falls Festival 2008 this year in Lorne and Marion Bay. 2008 features a rich and diverse line-up that is already shaping up to be one of the best in the 16 year history of this iconic festival. The Falls Music & Arts Festival: The three day picnic begins on December 29th, 2008 along the beautiful coastlines of Lorne, Victoria and Marion Bay, Tasmania as it celebrates its sweet 16th birthday in Vic and its 6th year running in Tas. Featuring around 60 performers, comedians, The Falls Arts Village, films, spectacular natural amphitheatres and FREE CAMPING.

Lugar: Lorne Falls Festival Site Although it may have started out as a modest night of Aussie music on a local farm to welcome in the New Year, the Falls Festival has become one of Australia's largest outdoor festivals, spread over two locations and featuring both local and international bands. The first Falls Festival took place in 1993 - albeit under the moniker Rock Above the Falls - when a local Lorne surfer decided to open his annual New Year's Eve farm party to a few thousand others. Throw in some of Australia's hottest bands at the time and a festival was born. Throughout its 14-year history, The Falls Festival has kept on expanding. As band line-ups built, ticket demands sky-rocketed; so much so that promoters extended it into a two-night affair and in 2003 added a sibling Falls in Marion Bay, Tasmania.

Lugar: Waiohika Estate Rhythm and Vines is a kiwi summer festival experience like no other. Picture the East Coast sun setting over grape rows as you enjoy a fine wine on a grassy slope. Picture the best of up-and-coming and established artists performing over four stages in natural amphitheaters set deep into the vineyard. Picture the glow of a magical ariel fireworks display as you and your friends become the first in the world to scream 'Happy New Year!' in unison with up to 20,000 festival-goers. Picture the festival that is Rhythm and Vines...

Lugar: Sir Stewart Bovell Park So, without further adieu, may we introduce the Southbound family for 2009. First up, a very big group from a very little country…those great Scots Franz Ferdinand. Now, say ‘yeah’ for our raucous Swedish brothers The Hives. And we see you’ve already met The Kooks. Watch those sharp horns…The Cat Empire can get a little wild. Now come and meet the rest of the family – there’s Gomez over in the corner playing ping-pong with Pete Murray. And that’s our American cousin Donavon Frankenreiter getting all philosophical with his northern neighbours Tegan And Sara. And on the trampoline, that’s The Grates with Atmosphere featuring Brother Ali. And there’s Faker playing doctors and nurses with Jamie Lidell. Eli ‘Paperboy’ Reed And The True Loves – please play nicely with Architecture In Helsinki! Oh, and there’re the twins…Birds Of Tokyo and Karnivool. Aren’t they cute? But they’re almost as hyperactive as A-Trak. The Mystery Jets and The Drones are some of the brightest in the bunch. Oh, and that’s Soko messing about with TZU, Liam Finn and Wolf & Cub – she’s visiting from France. And there you have it – the Southbound family. But that’s not all…there are plenty more of us. But you’ll get to meet the rest in the months ahead. More than 30 international, national and local artists will make the fifth annual Southbound the finest yet on Friday, January 2 and Saturday, January 3, at Sir Stewart Bovell Park, Busselton.

Lugar: Sir Stewart Bovell Park Once upon a time some nice folk packed up their van and drove through the thick city haze to the pristine paradise of the South West. They set up tents, threw down some tasty organic tucker and danced around while bands from lands afar made music upon the stage. So began the Southbound Festival. More than 30 international, national and local artists will make the fifth annual Southbound Festival the finest yet. Southbound will again feature many special initiatives, including Art Bound , which gives visual artists a chance to get involved in the cultural celebration that is Southbound.
