The Wombats Upgrade Splendour Sideshow Venues

Staff Writer

Sold out shows to move to bigger venues

More The Wombats The Wombats Profile

It was expected as one of the headline acts for Splendour In The Grass this year, that The Wombats sideshows would be hot ticket items. 

And it proved to be true as the Sydney and Melbourne shows sold out within minutes of going on sale this morning, while the Perth and Adelaide concerts are well on their way. 

As a result, the Sydney show has been moved from Enmore Theatre to the Hordern Pavilion, while the British band's Melbourne performance has been upgraded from the Palais to Margaret Court Arena. 

Tickets for the upgraded shows are on sale now, so if you missed out, here is your chance!

All current ticket holders of the original shows will receive new tickets and information from Ticketek shortly.
