NEW DATES
For Western Australians, the festive holiday period is synonymous with the South West corner of our fair state. As such, Southbound organisers have locked in the period between Christmas and New Years as the new dates of the festival for 2016 and in years to come. The Southbound team are calling out to their loyal supporters to help to rebuild and improve the event due to the subsequent impact of January's devastating fires and to continue the festival legacy and its future with these new dates.
SOUTHBOUND AND THE SOUTH WEST COMMUNITY
The rebuilding process from the devastating fires that led to the cancellation of the January 2016 festival continue to be a costly exercise in both time and money. After raising over $150,000 towards the appeal with the Southbound Benefit Concert held just days after the January cancellation, the festival will continue to undertake fundraising initiatives leading up to the December event, including collection efforts made on ground across the three day festival.
More than ever, Southbound feels strongly connected to the South West and is developing programs and strategies to cement the synergy between the local community and the festival.
