THE LINEUP HAS ARRIVED! WOO! CHECK IT OUT RIGHT HERE

Fuzzy’s favourite travelling party Parklife returns this September and October, with the promise of a super-sized line-up to mark the festival’s 10th anniversary. An announcement today confirms the five Australian stops on the itinerary, so you can mark the day on your calendar well in advance. The one major change is the shift of the Queensland event from Brisbane to the Gold Coast, so stay tuned for more details on that front.

Given the ten year milestone, Fuzzy is sure to go all-out on the artists in 2010. Last year’s tour boasted an array of talent from across the electronic and indie realm, including La Roux, Claude VonStroke, Metric, The Rapture and Tiga, so the precedent has been set.

“This year’s going to be huge,” Fuzzy’s co-founder John Wall promises in the press release. “There are some really cool surprises for music lovers across the country. If you think you know Parklife, you’re going to love where we’re taking the line-up this year. It’s not what you expect.”

National Parklife tour dates are below; keep an eye on ITM’s festival page for all the updates.

Gold Coast – Saturday 25 September
Perth – Sunday 26 September
Melbourne – Saturday 2 October
Sydney – Sunday 3 October
Adelaide – Monday 4 October

Wow, not impressed with the move to the coast. Botanic gardens last year was the best festival venue of the season

@rory431. Clearly we weren't at the same festival. Parklife has massively outgrown botanical gardens. Hope it chooses wisely on the coast.

"you%u2019re going to love where we%u2019re taking the line-up this year"... some techno? that would be great! "If you think you know Parklife..." god dare i say it... trance... better not!

kboss said on the 31st May, 2010

well i still think that it is better than all these other dance festivals like creamfields, stereosonic, we love sounds etc ....... way too many travelling festivals these days

Glennp said on the 31st May, 2010

So much better that has been moved from bogan Brisbane to the gold coast, riverstage isnt big enough and Brisbane is pathetic in the quality outdoor venue stakes actually pathetic in any sort of decent venues outside of riverstage, fuzzy has fieldayze at

"It%u2019s not what you expect" - Remains to be seen. But if we see the following then we know Mr. Wall and Fuzzy are liars. In no particular order - Felix da Housecat, Martin Solveig, Switch, Roger Sanchez etc etc yawn yawn yawn. Don't come up with pr

Donnamatrix said on the 31st May, 2010

Sucks that it has moved to the coast, although I know a fair few people who missed out on their acts due to the sardine style layout last year. Still...more money spent renting somewhere to stay. They wouldn't dare charge $150 ....I hope.

dubius said on the 1st Jun, 2010

Fingers crossed for it to not be another oversold, shit sound quality, full of wankers, overhyped music festival... My fingers hurt.

claydog said on the 1st Jun, 2010

Never going to another PL again after i was locked out of the main stage GC = wankers!!!

InTheForest said on the 1st Jun, 2010

I would actually cry if Hawtin is at another festival. he needs his own club tour show, plasticman is not something for a festival in this country. 1/2 the idiots that would attend wouldn't get what is going on, and he'll probably warming up to some stup

campbellt said on the 1st Jun, 2010

InTheForest RE: Hawtin wouldn't get booked for a Parklife Tour ever, totally the wrong crowd!

campbellt said on the 1st Jun, 2010

gosia_green said on the 3rd Jun, 2010

Well that sucks!! Not coming to Brisbane. Not happy!!!!!

xtigga said on the 3rd Jun, 2010

Moving it to Gold Coast takes away one of the best things about Parklife. Might as well make Stafford Brothers the headlining act.

Paul L said on the 3rd Jun, 2010

Expect another year where the organisers demonstrate what they definitely lack imagination and the willingness to take a risk on something new and fresh(like Dubstep, or low-slung beats, and electronica) to pander to the masses of kids in fluro, little sh
