Tune up, check in and drop down to Rolling Stone House at SXSW Sydney.
For the very first time, Rolling Stone AU/NZ will take over UTS Underground at SXSW Sydney for three nights of can’t-miss live music.
Several of Australia’s biggest stars will grace the stage, alongside the hottest up-and-coming acts.
SXSW Sydney badge holders will have priority access to Rolling Stone House, which opens its doors from October 16th to 18th, in partnership with American Apparel, Cholula and Vinyl.com.
Opening night promises to be a blockbuster.
On Wednesday, October 16th, the lineup at Rolling Stone House will be curated by independent Australian music powerhouses LLA and UNIFIED Music Group, with Hockey Dad, The Grogans, Full Flower Moon Band, and Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers (DJ set) slated to perform.
“After the success of Rolling Stone Courtyard at last year’s inaugural SXSW Sydney,” comments Jessica Hunter, head of The Brag Media, “we can’t wait to go even bigger and bolder in 2024 with Rolling Stone House.”
“We hope people will come for the incredible music and stay for the vibes across three epic nights of live performances and brand activations,” adds Hunter.
“With the Rolling Stone brand, The Brag Media can deliver world-class activations and performances, bringing together all elements of Australia’s creative scene. Together with American Apparel and Cholula, we know that Rolling Stone House will be the party everyone wants to be at this festival.”
The full lineup will be announced over the coming weeks.
Notes Dave Hillen, director American Apparel Asia Pacific: “Partnering with Rolling Stone at SXSW is an exciting opportunity for American Apparel to celebrate the convergence of fashion, music, and culture. This collaboration is a perfect fit for our shared values of creativity, individuality and self-expression. Together, we aim to bring an unforgettable experience to festival-goers, amplifying the spirit of SXSW.”
