UPDATE 28/04/14: Three major new acts added to the Splendour 2014 lineup including Childish Gambino — full details here!
Splendour In The Grass have done a pretty sterling job at keeping the 2014 lineup under wraps over the last 12 months, with fans chomping at the bit to get a SITG 2014 lineup leak or two. The time has now come for a full reveal, with 2014 set to feature Outkast, Two Door Cinema Club, Lily Allen, Interpol and more!
There was no shortage rumours circling this year’s lineup, with London Grammar, Sky Ferreira, Mikhael Paskalev, Metronomy, Kelis, and Foster The People a few of the more hotly tipped names to be thrown about by eager fans.
Headliner Outkast were confirmed for the opening night of the festival after prematurely posting the news in the tour details section of their website. The legendary Atlanta duo were hotly rumoured for Splendour In The Grass since announcing their 40-date festival-only reunion tour in January.
While the rest of the lineup did a better job or keeping their Splendour commitments a secret, Music Feeds revealed in late March that 21-year-old NSW producer Max Armata aka Yahtzel was bound for Splendour this July, after the news was leaked in the up-and-coming producer’s official bio.
Chet Faker was thought to be all systems go after he was quoted as confirming such in an interview with Purple Sneakers. However, the Melbourne producer later explained to Music Feeds that the quote was a result of miscommunication and that he would not be appearing at Splendour 2014.
The dates and venue for Australia’s most beloved three-day camping and musical event was announced early in February. Splendour 2014 will once again take place on the last weekend of July (Friday, 25th – Sunday, 27th) at the North Byron Parklands in Aussie festival hive Byron Bay.
The event first came to the North Byron Parklands last year, after several long years of lobbying by the organisers. According to the official press release unveiled with the announcement, on-site camping will be available from Wednesday, 23rd July. Check below for lineup and ticketing info.
