Jimmy Barnes & Joan Jett Lead 2019 Red Hot Summer Festival

The Red Hot Summer Festival is back in 2019 with a massive series one line-up featuring Australia’s rock legend Jimmy Barnes and punk pioneer Joan Jett.

Going down across regional Australia next January, the bill also features The Living End, Diesel, Richard Clapton and Chocolate Starfish.

Starting in Mannum, South Australia, the tour will then make its way to the Swan Valley, Mornington, Launceston, Ballarat, the Hunter Valley and Baulkham Hills before finishing up on Bribie Island.

Established almost a decade ago with a regional ethos in mind, festival promoter Duane McDonald said “music fans are everywhere, and just because they don’t live in a capital city doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have access to some of the best live acts”.

Tickets go on sale this week so “put another dime in the jukebox baby” and check out theGuide for all the details.
