“A few years ago I had the pleasure of heading to North Queensland as part of my Shutting Down Your Town tour and it re-opened my eyes to just how beautiful this country can be” headliner Jimmy Barnes said in a press statement. 

“With a combination of some of the country’s most beautiful locations, populated by some great North Queensland music lovers, I couldn’t be happier to be heading up to Mareeba for Savannah in the Round this year.”

The first announcement also includes a crop of 15 artists tborn and bred in Far North Queensland, including The Pigs, Black Image, Roz Pappalardo, Out of Abington and many more.

“Australian music has never been hotter, so we decided this year to lead with the locals first,” Event Director James Dein said in a statement. “This year’s event will welcome a who’s who of the best in Australian rock, pop and country heading north for a three-day party. Savannah in the Round is a true celebration of everything that’s great about Australia and everything that’s special about Far North Queensland and this year’s event will be our biggest one yet.”

In addition to all the music on offer, Savannah in the Round will also feature the Great Northern Bullriding Series, Indigenous visual art, music and dance displays, a market village full of local produce and products, and an onsite “paddock to plate” experience, showcasing the freshest local ingredients you can find north of the border.
