A Festival Called PANAMA Announces First Artists

A Festival Called PANAMA has announced its first round of artists making their way to the Lone Star ranges in March 2016.

For three nights (March 11^th, 12^th and 13^th) the glades of the Lone Star Valley will be transformed again into a world of stages, nightclubs, speakeasies and food markets. A lineup of rising stars and celebrated cult figures from around the country and the world will take to the stages set in old canvas tents and tiny candlelit bars as well as a main stage.  The weekend will feature a host of sideshows of wild jazz, world class cabarets, intimate acoustic sessions and unforgettable storytelling.

The line-up includes; Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, Natalie Prass, Marlon Williams and The Yarra Benders, The Harpoons, Methyl Ethel, Rolls Bayce, Olympia, Crepes, Sweet Jean & Heart Beach, with more to be announced!

Camping fields are set in among the PANAMA forest and there’s plenty to do if you, for some reason don’t feel like watching the amazing line-up.  Like trying the small-batch apple cider brewed on site or a range of locally brewed craft beers and select Tasmanian wines, or taking part in the clothes swap, looking through the artisan markets of joining a morning yoga session lakeside. PANAMA has all the bases covered.

Limited tickets are available from December 1^st at www.panamafestival.com.au
