Miss out on a locals ticket to the Falls Festival this year?

That’s a pity. There are plenty of local acts among the overseas line-up including Ilona Harker, Inagwa, comedian Mandy Nolan, Wharves from Byron, Lismore hip-hop outfit Teddy Lewis King, DJs Crucial D and Shizzle, The Cassettes and Funky Moves dance crews as well as Mullumbimby’s favourite Russian men’s choir Dustyesky.

Volunteering

So here’s how to score a ticket: volunteers who help out around Brunswick Heads over New Year will be eligible for a free three-day festival pass.

Conditions include a daily three-hour shift, sometime between 8am and 4pm.

Call Ollie Heathwood on 0428 284 030 for more more info.
