Reforming for their first shows in a decade, Magic Dirt will play Hotter Than Hell 2019 alongside Spiderbait, Jebediah and more.

After a successful sold-out debut last year, the touring festival has unveiled an epic local line-up for the next instalment, which will kick off in Townsville in December of this year, before taking on Gladstone, Toowoomba, Gold Coast, Mt Evelyn, Ipswich and more across January and February 2019.

Here’s the first line-up announcement in full:

“Punters right across Australia voted with their ears this year, with an overwhelming demand for the first Hotter Than Hell” organisers said.

“Bringing together iconic Aussie rock and taking it to places that often get overlooked by the touring circuit has proven that Australians want their rock and Hotter Than Hell is committed to be the institution that will keep the fire burning year after year.”

Head to the Hotter Than Hell website to sign up for pre-sale tickets, before GA tickets go on sale next Wednesday, July 4, at 10am; check out theGuide for all the details.
