Factory Summer Festival: Massive line-up of pop-royalty ready to rock Perth’s Optus Stadium

Summer is set to sizzle for Perth partygoers as Factory Summer Festival returns.

This years festival will see it return to its pre-pandemic glory, this time across three weekends in December — 18, 24 and New Year’s Eve at new venue, Stadium Park at Optus Stadium.

Punters will have special bragging rights with 10 Perth-only acts including Australian pop royalty, The Veronicas.

Other artists on the bill include Cosmo’s Midnight, FlexMami, Godlands, Hermitude, Lastlings, Lucille Croft, Mashd N Kutcher, Nina Las Vegas, and Set Mo.

Event Co-Director, Chris Bausor has promised ticket-holders a unique experience, with all of the extravagance partygoers have come to expect over the years including themed bars, rides and special activations.

“After adapting to operating COVID safe events last year, we have deliberately designed our site to allow three square metres per person to provide for social distancing,” Bausor said.

Last year, the predominately outdoor event had suffered numerous setbacks trying to appease the State Government with COVID restrictions forced a handful of rescheduled dates and moving to smaller, more intimate inside gigs.

The 2021 season is expected to create over 2,700 jobs for artists and creatives, trades and technicians, hospitality workers and media professionals.

Tickets go on sale September 14.
