Despite controversy surrounding the Sydney venue for Pandemonium Rocks festival, cancellation reports, and an altered line-up, the inaugural event is going ahead tomorrow at Melbourne’s Caribbean Gardens.

After the Melbourne event, Pandemonium lands at Sydney’s Cathy Freeman Park, Sydney Olympic Park Precinct on Thursday, 25 April (the ANZAC Day public holiday), the Gold Coast’s Broadwater Parklands on Saturday, 27 April, and Brisbane’s Eatons Hill Hotel on Sunday, 28 April.

In between the festival dates is a sideshow co-headlined by Alice Cooper and Blondie at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre (Tuesday, 23 April).

Today, Pandemonium Rocks festival organisers have announced the timetables for each event, as well as revealing the local openers who have replaced the slot Palaye Royale had to abandon due to a family emergency.

In Melbourne, Aimee Francis & The Midnight Hours will open the show, while in Sydney, Fyrebirds will get the party started, The Silencio will kick off the Gold Coast event, and in Brisbane, the show begins with PistonFist.

As a one-stage event, there will be no clashes at Pandemonium 2024. After the local acts kick off the fun, Cosmic Psychos, Wolfmother, Wheatus, and The Psychedelic Furs will take the stage before headliners Blondie and Alice Cooper.
