WHY GO: The line-up for this year is huge, and Byron Bay is the backdrop. Need we say more? Probably not.

WHAT ELSE? To get festival-goers in the Splendour mood, and “because three days of arts and music is never enough”, promoters have announced the official Splendour In The Grass Pre-Party, taking place the night before the festival kicks off – on Thursday July 24 at The Northern in Byron Bay – with a line-up featuring seven artists billed for the event. Sweet!

HOW MUCH: $355 for the weekend.

PS. Boots are a necessity, with the huge site pretty susceptible to Glastonbury-esque mud. 

When: July 25-27

Where: North Byron Parklands

Cost: $355 for the weekend
