FESTIVAL
THIS THAT
Newcastle's festival shaped void is about to be filled with THIS THAT, a brand new music, food and culture experience Saturday October 31. THIS THAT welcomes discerning revellers to Newcastle's iconic beachside Foreshore greenspace for a full day of primo eats, carefully crafted beverages and the cream of the Aussie music crop and international guests across two huge stages.
THIS THAT is a premium playground, nestled within an edgy mix of indie cool tunes, across a multi genre spread that is poised to become a flagship 18+ festival for the Newcastle and Hunter region.
DRINK THAT
Out with the premixes and in with the mixologists! Gone are the days of overpriced, under-satisfying premixed festival drinks in a can. THIS THAT features small batch brew craft beer, wine, cider and fresh poured mixed spirits and cocktail lists to be curated by the region's clickiest bars and 'hole the wall' speakeasies!
EAT THIS
No more will punters be haunted by the terrifying sight of a thousand dagwood dogs and the thought of having to choose between a deep fried dim-sim or bain-marie Chiko Roll. THIS THAT embraces the Aussie foodie revolution and brings it to the masses. Culinary delights are carefully constructed by local niche restaurants and the best of Sydney's internationally renowned food trucks make the trek north for the occasion.
LISTEN TO THIS, DANCE TO THAT
Nobody puts THIS THAT in a corner, especially when there's reason to dance in the sunshine. The outdoor THIS Stage will host an eclectic mix of the best local and international leading and emerging artists. Meanwhile, over on THAT Stage, some of the most exciting electronic music acts will tear up the big top. The full line-up will be announced on triple j, Thursday 30th of July.
THE OTHER
And finally, after a little bit of this and a little bit of that, there's THE OTHER: Dabbling in the weird and wonderful, THIS THAT comes complete with artisan market that would put Etsy to shame. Curated by those in the know at The Follower and the team from Hunt & Gather - Newcastle's leading boutique, designer markets - stalls will bring like-minded individuals together to share carefully crafted creative wares for curious collectors. Plus roving artisan performances and interactive workshops will open the mind and warm the soul. Expose, inspire, excite, ignite.
