5 reasons why you must attend Stonefest this weekend
By Minh Thu Pham Tran
Much like your favourite childhood bands, Canberra’s original music festival STONEFEST is finally making its comeback after a long hiatus. It is going to be BIG and you should be there! Here are five reasons why.
1. It has a kick-ass headline.
To mark its return, Stonefest 2019 has a mammoth line-up of international acts, Hottest 100 favourites and some of Australia’s hottest new talents.
The eclectic acts are going to play over two stages, Stonefest 2019 for sure ticks all the boxes. Also, this year Stonefest is proud to have a diverse and well-represented line-up. With a blend of old and new and different genres, there is something for everyone. Moreover, with more than 60% of the bands have non-male representation, the festival is putting the spotlights on the female and non-binary artists, along with acts from various backgrounds influences to reflect the diversity of the UC community. Stonefest is a nostalgia trip and a glimpse into the future all in one.
2. These limited merchs are total keepers.
These limited edition tees are the best way to treasure your Stonefest memories. We are totally rocking them to the event and maybe way long after that too.
3. You, me, burgers and Stonefest. Oh, it’s a date!
Stonefest has teamed up with Grease Monkey and brought you the best feed. You can easily grab a burger at Greasy’s burger truck at the festival all day!
Do we need to say more? Good music + yummy food = 100% winning!
4. You can quench your thirst with the best brew in town (responsibly).
Burgers taste the best with beers, especially when it’s locally brewed.
And just so you know, Capital Brewing brews will be pouring all day long at Stonefest!
So now you can enjoy good live music, have delicious food, crack a cold one with the boys and have the best time. It’s going to be mad fun!
5. Let’s rock the hat runway with your greatest headwear!
As a cherry on top, the greatest hat hunt is happening in Australian CAP-ital territory, right here at Stonefest!
If you think your cap has got what it takes, don’t be shy and make sure to wear it to the festival for your chance to rock the hat runway! Who knows, you just might be crowned with your greatest headwear and walk away with massive prizes. This is the competition that you don’t want to miss!
