Future Music Festival pretty much marks the wind down of the festival season and in Brissy it usually means one of the worst days weather-wise for festivals with torrential downpours and a venue of muddy swamp varying in depth from ankle deep to thigh high wading! But this year? New venue and for the first time in longer than most can remember, it was sunny!! Not just sunny but a comfortable warm autumn’s day. The pitch was a little crispy after the damage from the Soundwave Festival the week before but other than that, it ran like clockwork. There was even no wait at the ticket booths (unlike the dogs breakfast of previous years) and a separate colleciton point for media, bless.
Highlight of the day goes to Rudimental, there’s something unbeatable about live drum and bass!
Check out the gallery of all the action below while we have a bit of a lie down….
Black shirt, metal, sweat, black chucks, swearing, yelling, punk, rock the f*ck on!

Couldn’t wait for the summer of the Warped Tour to fall in love with the girl from the rock show? We couldn’t either! Thankfully after a 10+ year hiatus its back gracing our shores with a tasty line up of pop punk and metal and some skatey types. With only 3 stages and longer sets it was a nice change from catching only 10-15min of your fave act then spending the rest of the time running between stages or queuing for toilets and drinks! Even better that the weather held off.
Check out the bumper gallery below for all the good time fun!
