Everyone’s a little skeptical when a new hip-hop festival in Australia comes along.

When Jumanji Festival was announced in late 2017 with Lil Wayne, Metro Boomin, DJ Mustard and Ace Hood leading the lineup, a lot of people questioned whether this was really going ahead – but less than a month away from the kickoff, it looks like everything is going to plan. Moreover, Jumanji Festival has now bolstered its debut lineup with another three internationals, with the lineup now resembling something from Supafest’s reign in Australia at the start of the decade.

Joining the initial four acts will be Maybach Music rapper Wale, who released his latest full length Shine last year, while Tyga will be bringing his arsenal of club hits to Australia for the first time since dropping 2017’s BitchImTheShit2 album. Rounding up the latest announcement is breakout rapper Madeintyo, off the back of slick singles including ‘Uber Everywhere’ and ‘Skateboard P.’

Jumanji Festival will be hitting Melbourne Showgrounds on March 9, before moving onto Parramatta Park in West Sydney on March 10. Grab your tickets here, and see the announce below:
