St Kilda Festival Drops Huge 2016 Bill Featuring The Beards, Client Liaison

With only 40 days to go until Port Phillip's annual St Kilda Festival, the largest free music festival in Australia, organisers have dropped a bomb line-up for you to take in, set against the idyllic surrounds of St Kilda Beach.

With the streets in the area closed off to accommodate 10 stages and around 400,000 rocking up to enjoy the festivities, this year's main stage is headed up by The Beards on what will be one of their last shows.

Joining them on the main stage are the likes of The Bombay Royale, Client Liaison, Gurrumul, The Grates, Tuka and more.

Across the nine other stages, you can groove away to Bad//Dreems, Ivan Ooze, Montaigne, Immigrant Union, Jess Ribeiro, Owen Rabbit and tons more.

St Kilda Festival's Festival Sunday will be held on 14 February 2016, though there are various other activities and musical fanfare to catch from Yalukit Wilum Ngargee on 6 February to Live N Local Week from 7 February to 13 February.
