Skrillex To Headline And Curate This Year's Shore Thing

Staff Writer

Organisers are leaving it in the dubstep demon's hands.

More Skrillex Skrillex Profile

For the first time ever, the team at Shore Thing are leaving the booking of the talent in the hands of the headline act. This could be considered a bit risky to some and with good reason, but when you've got dubstep hero Skrillex as the man making the decisions, you can be sure he'll pick a line up to please.

He has been announced as the headline act for the mammoth New Year's Eve party that hits Bondi each and every year, joining a list of alumni like Snoop Dogg, Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers, David Guetta, Groove Armada and a whole heap more!

This will be the very first time Australian audiences get the full Skrillex live experience, as the DJ and producer brings his mammoth Skrillex Spaceship stage show to Australia for the very first time for this event.

As well as putting on one of his trademark epic performances, he will be picking who joins him on the bill. This will make speculation about the rest of the line up, which is yet to be announced, particularly fun, so start your guessing now.

The event happens at Bondi Beach on Tuesday 31 December. The first round of tickets are available right now for $118 + bf, but the first allocation won't last long so get in quick to save a bunch of cash.
