Did you miss out on Splendour In The Grass tickets? Don’t cry for too long, because the first of the sideshows have arrived!

While hopefuls will have to wait until 30th May to get tickets through Splendour’s official resale facility, a bunch of headline shows provides you with another chance to catch a headline act in a more intimate environment. Our pick of the bunch? At The Drive-In at The Enmore Theatre. We can only imagine how ferocious this show is going to be, with the legendary rock crew also hitting The Forum in Melbourne.

Also on the cards is James Blake, who’ll be blessing four headline shows with his elegant vocals and tasteful bass soundscapes. The 1975 will also be performing their biggest headline shows to date, and we’re expecting more acts to join the sideshow wave in the near future. All sideshows announced thus far can be seen below.

For most of the shows, pre-sale tickets will be available from 10:00am on Tuesday 26th April to 8:00am on Wed 27th April. Meanwhile, general public tickets will be on sale from 9:00am on Wednesday 27th April. You can visit Secret Sounds for more information, and seeing how fast Splendour itself sold out, you should be getting involved ASAP.
