Fatboy Slim Leads First Line-Up Tease From New Sydney Fest Electric Gardens

Sydney will have more entertainment than it can poke a stick at this coming Australia Day weekend, with nascent festival Electric Gardens announcing its intent to rock the city's Centennial Park in January 2016, with a line-up led by veteran electro-icon Fatboy Slim.

Organisers have also revealed that fellow luminaries John Digweed and James Zabiela will be high atop the bill, rounding out the first tastes of what is promised to ultimately take shape as a "superstar DJ line-up" to help keep you grooving right through from when the gates open at noon to the final revelry at 10pm.

To celebrate the arrival of the inaugural Electric Gardens boutique event, the festival is holding a very special, very limited, early-bird ticket release for $99, ahead of general-release tickets going on sale on 1 October. If you're keen on the cheap passes, head to the festival's website and register to secure yours before the allocation runs out.

Electric Gardens 2016 hits Centennial Park on Saturday, 23 January. For more information, see the event's website.
