Good news for anyone who missed out on tickets to Splendour In The Grass 2016. You’ve still got a chance to see some of your favourite artists because the now sold-out festival has just announced a whole raft of sideshows.
The latest round of announcements includes headlining dates for some truly huge Splendour acts including At The Drive-In, The 1975, James Blake, Nothing But Thieves, Peter, Bjorn & John and Mark Lanegan Band.
There’s also a few double-headers with Jake Bugg teaming up with Blossoms, Jack Garratt with Kacy Hill and Beach Slang joining forces with Spring King.
While the majority of acts are sticking to Sydney and Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth are also getting a bit of love from a few select artists.
