Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Coachella Effect: Who Comes to Australia Next?
Q: Do multi-genre festivals work well in Australia, and what are the risks or rewards of mixing genres versus booking around a single genre or a few headliners?
The hosts argue multi-genre festivals can be great in theory but currently face practical risks in Australia; big headliners drive ticket sales, and the rest of the lineup must flow with or complement the headliner, otherwise momentum and value for money suffer.
The Coachella Effect: Who Comes to Australia Next?
Q: Why do you think promoters are getting venue sizing so wrong when data signals seem obvious, especially given how much control and data Live Nation or Frontier Touring have access to?
One host admits they aren't in that field and can't offer a definitive answer, but they acknowledge the question is valid and suggest it's a topic worth discussing with real Promoter guests in future episodes.
