New music festival on the block Pandemonium appears to be living up to its name, announcing a stack of big, last minute changes to its lineup, venues, stage plan and ticketing prices in the lead up to its debut later this month.
To begin with, headliners Alice Cooper and Blondie will still be performing. However, a bunch of other international acts have pulled out of the event, including Deep Purple, Placebo, Dead Kennedys, Gang Of Four and Petch.
“We truly love the support and understanding of our patrons in these tough economic times”
Australian band Gyroscope have also bowed out of the fest.
As a result of the lineup downsize, the fest has also been chopped from a two-stage event to just a one-stage event.
Meanwhile, the two Queensland venues have also changed, with the Gold Coast leg shifting from Doug Jennings Park to Broadwater Parklands, while the Bribie Island event has been moved to Brisbane’s Eatons Hill Hotel venue (however, Blondie won’t be appearing at that one).
Also due to the changes, the ticket price has also been slashed to $190 per ticket (Eatons Hill Hotel is $165 GA, plus fees).
For punters who’ve already bought tickets at the original price, you’ll have the option of either copping an extra free ticket for a mate, claiming a partial refund of $70 or choose a complimentary Pandemonium hoodie valued at $100.
“Pandemonium Rocks 2024 not only delivers a day of iconic artists who are the soundtrack to our lives but also by proceeding supports our Australian artists, crews and music fans, the importance of supporting the Australian Festival scene right now has never been more important to ensure there is a future,” organisers posted on socials.
“We truly love the support and understanding of our patrons in these tough economic times and are looking forward to seeing you all at the Pandemonium event of your choice.”
