Peats Ridge announce 2012festival lineup

“The location is gorgeous, the dickhead factor is at an all-time low and if it was any more laid back, it would probably fall over.” Peats Ridge Sustainable Arts and Music Festival will return to Glenworth Valley this New Year’s Eve with a distinct lack of dickheads and one very relaxed lineup.

With a focus on creating a total experience for all, Peats Ridge hosts art installations, kooky themed venues, multimedia, theatre, dance, cabaret, comedy, circus, and much, much more, all winding along the riverbank and dotted through a unique event site.

The festival also prides itself as a world leader in sustainable events and remains family orientated with a full children’s program available. The Peats Ridge experience is about much more than the music, as the festival’s founder Matt Grant told FasterLouder in 2009, “What makes a festival is when the sun goes down and the place really comes alive. You’re creating an alternate reality for people at a festival – an opportunity to step out of their everyday lives.”
