Red Hot Summer Tour Unveils 10th Anniversary Line-up

“This tour is going to be huge."

Some serious local talent will help Red Hot Summer Tour celebrate its 10th anniversary next year, with Hunters & Collectors reforming to headline the touring festival.

“The lads are very excited to be getting out into all the regional towns that made them welcome when they were touring at their peak throughout Australia,” Hunter & Collectors’ Mark Seymour said, adding: “This tour is going to be huge.”

Kicking off at Bendigo Racecourse on January 4, the 22-date tour will also include James Reyne, The Living End, The Angels, Baby Animals, Killing Heidi and Boom Crash Opera.

The Red Hot Summer Tour has expanded drastically since it first debuted, originally featuring a line-up of three artists playing six shows across Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia.

“The past 10 years have gone so fast and we have been so proud to see the Red Hot Summer Tour continue to grow each year,” promoter Duane McDonald said.

“The support we have received from audiences has been phenomenal. To everyone who has attended a Red Hot Summer Tour show over the last decade – thank you. You are the reason we do what we do, and will continue to bring you the best quality music experience, every year. 

“We can’t wait to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Red Hot Rock with music fans around the country.”
