And there will be more acts announced in October!
The Southbound festival in Busselton will be held on 6 January 2007, and is a weekend of music, camping and arts, often described as a ‘european’ style festival (though the main acts still all play over one day). 2007 will be the third year for this annual festival.
This year you can camp on two nights, Friday 5 and Saturday 6 January 06. There will be acoustic performances on the Friday night, and busses going into Busselton on Friday night and Saturday morning. These tickets are $139 if you book an e-ticket through the website. Camping is only for over 18’s.
You can also buy a ticket just for the Saturday. These are $89 if you book through the website.
Tickets can also be bought through Ticketek, and various retail outlets but will incur a booking fee.
For all the other types of tickets, info on the busses that will go from Perth, Bunbury, Yallingup, Margaret River and Busslton and lots more info, see the Sunset Events website.

Hi. I just bought a ticket but unfortunatelly since I have never been to the festival and are very new to Oz I didnt realise that by buying a ticket that is not a happy camper one i wont be able to say there for the night. I dont have any accommodation and all my friends who are going are going to stay in a tent. What can I do to be able to stay with them as well? can you please let me knoe asap?! Thanks.

It’s sold out, so I don’t think you’ll have much luck… :/
Hi. I’ve got a ticket for southbound to sell. Unfortunately i wont be able to go so it would be a shame if it was wasted. The ticket is not a Happy Camper one so you will have to organise your own accommodation. It’s a friday and saturday pass. The price is $250 but am happy to negotiate. If you are interested please e-mail so we can talk it over. cheers
