Sugar Mountain Festival 2011 line up announced

Update: Final Line up has been announced

The Sugar Mountain Festival will provide a welcome boost to Melbourne’s thriving arts scene on Saturday 30 April 2011.

Taking place over multiple locations in Melbourne’s city centre, including The Forum Theatre, No Vacancy Gallery at Federation Square, and The Atrium, Sugar Mountain will celebrate the diverse creative forms of music and visual art, with a focus on the natural meeting points between.
