Manifest, the freshest way to kiss goodbye to winter and spring into summer under the stars.
The moment you’ve been waiting for has arrived, the release of our highly anticipated full line-up for 2016! With more than 100 international and Australian artists now locked in for September 23-25 at Cherrabah Resort in South-East Queensland, our full bill packs more heat than a tropical summer and is sure to please even the most discerning of fans.
Fresh headliners include The Australian premiere of ISM, a new live project from celebrated New Zealand bass producer Harry Bretherton (Organikismness/Soulware); the intricate progressive techno and house of Canberra’s Doppel; the upfront dub/reggae vibes of Melbourne’s Mista Savona and the eclectic fusion of music and cuisine that is New Zealand’s Soundfood.
They join an already epic list including Blockhead (Ninja Tune - USA), Ed Solo (UK), DJ Total Eclipse (USA), Astronomy Class (Elefant Trax - Sydney), Mantra featuring DJ Flagrant (Melbourne), Jamie McDowell & Tom Thum (Sydney/Brisbane), Tribone (Israel), Spacey Koala (Canada), Hypnotech (USA/Melbs), Astro Travellers (Brisbane), Franky Smart Band, Royalston (Sydney) and way too many more to list (see the bottom of this release for the full drop).
Of course, it doesn’t end there. Manifest isn’t just about the music and this year, we’ve assembled our biggest ever arts, lifestyle and workshop program to ensure you’ll always have something to do between the beats. Whether it’s browsing more than 30 market stalls, indulging in gourmet food and local produce, watching high-flying aerial artists in action or listening to a talk on permaculture and sustainability in the Conscious Nest, there are plenty of chances to learn, create, nourish and grow at Manifest 2016.
In keeping with our sustainable ethos, we’re also doing our bit for the environment through our Re-Veg initiative by planting one native Australian seedling for every ticket sold. The trees will be planted in a new Tranquil Garden at Cherrabah Resort for use by festival goers, tourists and the local community for many years to come, as well as helping improve the event’s carbon footprint.
“We’re super proud of what we’ve been able to put together this year, it’s a great mix of amazing music, vibrant arts, yummy food and educational workshop and activities,” Manifest Co-Director Renan Inal said.
“There won’t be anywhere else in the country you can experience the legendary New York turntable wizard DJ Total Eclipse on the same stage as UK drum’n’bass pioneer Ed Solo, international beatbox superstar Tom Thum, Canberra techno producer Doppel and Brisbane jazz outfit Brisbane’s Franky Smart Band all in the one place - all in the lush surrounds of Cherrabah Resort two hours from Brisbane. Add in our hugely expanded sustainability program Re-Veg and loads of great collaboration with the local community, we think this year’s festival will be the best in our five year history.”
