Wax On: A State By State Guide Of Where To Bulk Up Your Vinyl This Record Store Day

10 June 2021 | 11:18 am | Tiana Speter

Not sure where to head when Record Store Day rolls around this Saturday? Never fear! We've rounded up all the stores across the country ready to tempt you with their waxy goodness - including a heap of regional spots in the mix!

Earlier in the week we took you through some of our top picks of the drool-worthy limited edition and exclusive releases on offer this Saturday for the first round of Record Store Day. And with the very welcome announcement yesterday that Victorians will finally be allowed out of lockdown just in time for the weekend, Record Store Day couldn't have come at a better time, set to take place in a (COVID-safe) capacity all over the country this Saturday 12 June.

The first edition of 2021's Record Store Day will be the big kahuna of the two planned events, with around two thirds of the limited edition records being released for this Saturday's festivities prior to round two in July. Expect an array of live music, special deals, discounts and a tonne of vinyl; but also expect a small amount of waiting and/or logistics to adhere to the necessary COVID procedures and ensure the stores aren't overflowing. 

Want to get involved but not sure where to go? We've got you covered, with a state-by-state roundup of which stores around the country are getting involved this Saturday!
