Will start off 2021 with a bang and a half…

Get ready for the sweet elixir of live music, as Secret Sounds are teaming up with Adelaide-based Five Four Entertainment and Groove to present Summer Sounds Festival, an 18-date summer concert series that’s set to bring in the new year in the most ridiculous and fantastic way possible. And don’t worry, the Adelaide concert series is completely approved by SA health, and is guaranteed to electrify live music back into South Australia in full force.

The shows will be taking place at Bonython Park in Adelaide, running from 30 December 2020 to 30 January 2021. The month long party in the south is set to feature Aussie artists from a slew of different genres, with artists like Lime Cordiale, Mallrat, Hayden James, Ocean Alley, Jack River, Human Nature and countless more taking to the stage. Good vibes will be filling the air, and no matter what genre or period of music you’re into, we guarantee there’s a little something for everyone in this beauty of a lineup.

Punters lucky enough to attend will be able to enjoy the festival in the all-new Party Pods, with each pod (available in VIP, Gold or Silver) capable of housing groups of 4 to 6 people. And get this, they all come fitted with an esky of pre-ordered drinks and snacks! Does it get any better than this?! Actually yes it does, as festival goers will be able to order additional beverages through the Summer Sounds event app, which will all be delivered straight to their Party Pod via a fleet of golf buggy mobile cars. It sounds like heaven if you ask us. And don’t worry, if you’re feeling a bit peckish, there’ll be a bunch of food trucks on standby ready to satisfy your every culinary need.

It sounds bloody amazing, and clearly everything has been thought out in excruciating detail. So get your mates together and fill up the van, as live music is coming back baby, and it’s bloody exhilarating. General public tickets go on sale this Friday at 10am ACDT, with the option to sign up for presale here. For now, check out the banging line-up below and get keen!
