TNT STAGE
Tomorrow’s Noise Today Stage
Every headliner started small. Somewhere in the Central West, tomorrow’s headliner is already making noise. They just need a crack at a real stage.
Our TNT stage is doing just that. We’ve got nine acts on the lineup already, and nine more spots up for grabs on TNT.
Same sound, same crowd, same lineup page.
TNT is after bands from the Central West and surrounds with a punk, metal, or rock sound. If you’ve got the noise, we’ve got the stage.
Meet the basics below and you’re in the running. Spots split the same way as the main lineup, four on Friday’s punk night, five on Saturday’s metal night.
Entries close in early August, date to be confirmed. If you’re keen, the sooner you apply, the better.
What you need to know
- 30 minute sets. Originals and covers welcome.
- Must be available to attend The Gig at Orange Showgrounds on Friday 4 September and Saturday 5 September. Winners only play one night, night placement is at the judges’ discretion.
