The Pandemonium Rocks festival has undergone changes, with acts such as Deep Purple, Placebo, and Dead Kennedys no longer performing. The festival has been reduced to a single-stage event and two of its venues have been changed. Ticketholders may be eligible for a refund or a free ticket to the event. The Gold Coast event will now take place at Broadwater Parklands, while the Sandstone Point Hotel event will happen at Eatons Hill Hotel. The Newcastle sideshows have been combined and will be co-headlined by Blondie and Alice Cooper.
The Pandemonium Rocks festival will no longer feature acts such as Deep Purple , Placebo , and Dead Kennedys .
"Despite the recent press reports that the Pandemonium Festival would be cancelled, we — Alice Cooper and Blondie — have worked closely together over the past several weeks to make it happen, despite serious challenges that threatened the festival tour," their statement read. "I'm not happy, because the four bands I wanted to see are not playing anymore," ticketholder Georgiana Mannion
Even for a promoter who has faced his share of controversy and criticism over his decades in the music industry, those negative comments still sting. "We're seeing costs up 30 to 40 per cent across the board, and ticket sales just aren't where they need to be to cover those costs," they said. "That bill price used to be 250 now it's 500,000," he said of setting up one leg of an event like Pandemonium.
