Valley Fiesta and Big Soundjoin forces

Thu 10th Jun, 2010 in Local News

This year one of Brisbane’s favourite celebrations of music, fashion, food and art Valley Fiesta is set to join forces with Q Music’s internationally renowned music industry platform Big Sound.

Controlling the amalgamation of two such musical brutes is sure to be a job-and-a-half, luckily though, the Brisbane City Council has enlisted the guiding hand of event and production super-coach Strut & Fret. The firm’s Creative Director Scott Maidment is excited by the challenge.

“In joining with Big Sound, we hope to develop this great local event into a national and international platform for Australian musicians as well as a great opportunity for Queenslanders to experience some of the best music and entertainment this country has to offer,”.

With a CV boasting references including Brisbane Festival, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Adelaide Fringe and Future Music Festival, Valley Fiest*’s new guardian is clearly qualified and ready for it’s 3 year appointment.

“Having been at Valley Fiesta and produced events in the Valley for the past 15 years, I’m really excited to be in a position where, after having gained the experience of traveling to and participating in national and international festivals, we can now steer Valley fiesta in a new direction over the next three years,”.

Valley Fiesta 2010 is set to further liven the streets and venues of Brisbane music’s super-suburb September 10 – 12.

More information including the first line-up announcement is promised shortly.
