do you AU guys have any major annual festivals?

I know about 2 tribes, are there any other major annual events that go on every year?

God's Kitchen is another. Not as big as tribes but still pretty big

we get godskitchen out here too like once a year.. cant think of anything else thats annual.. pretty horrible really

edit: damn beat me by a minute! hehe

interesting, I always thought godskitchen was more like promotion/production group similar to spundae, I didn't realize they also had an annual event.

Godskitchen in October (Melbourne only)

If you like hardstyle, dnb, hard dance and (very small, not worth the trip solely for it though) bits of trance, "Enchanted" in Adelaide is pretty big, thats in early december each year. However thats been "last ever outdoor Enchanted" for about 3 years now, so dunno if it'll be on this year.

so I'm assuming you guys dont see much of the big corporate sponsored type events you see in europe (ie how T-Mobile used to sponsor love parade, playstation 2 sponosored some of the mayday shows etc etc)

For Melbourne, what about
Summadayze
Earthcore

Isn't there another one at the Music bowl too?

fark no.... loveparade...i wish!!

yeah muzzdayze pretty good, and earthcore pretty massive if you a psy-trancing, bong-smoking, pixie-dusting hippie!

hahahaha that sounds like the "burning man" event that goes down every year here stateside

If you like something a little different, a new daytime festival called Digital is amazingly good if you like something other than trance

It's only been running for two years but i think it'll be huge for years to come!

In sydney they have that Future Music Day or whatever the fuck its called that runs with the Two Tribes tour which is held in march at Randwick (please correct all inaccuracies for me)

Also The Big Day Out which is a maily rock type festival that tours the country and NZ in Jan/Feb. They have a stage called the Boiler Room which is dance music oriented but tends to be a mixed bag.
