After a one-year forced hiatus, the organizers of Brisbane’s only BYO-camping-music-festival are ecstatic to announce that Red Deer is back on October 3rd, and it’s here to stay! In its fifth year at the grassy amphitheater in the Samford Valley, Red Deer Fest 2015 is set to be the biggest yet.
Festival Director Julian De Maria admits the last 18 months of chasing permits and filling in paperwork haven’t been the most exciting, but that the prospect of returning this October long-weekend, backed by a stampede of passionate supporters, have made it all worthwhile.
“We’ve always had amazing fans, but when we heard that there were over 200 letters to council from the public, begging for Red Deer to return, we were stunned and so proud,” he said.
For those who are yet to experience the euphoric display of music, arts and community spirit that is Red Deer, it’s time you listened up. Nestled at the base of the pristine D’Aguilar Range, Red Deer is a BYO couch-and-booze festival that invites punters to set up, soak up and party whichever way they please.
“We never want Red Deer to be just another overcrowded, money-grabbing festival. We strive to deliver a fresh and relaxed homegrown experience, memorable for its good vibes, mutual respect and sense of soul,” he said. “Red Deer is all about the experience, and we encourage our punters to make it their own.”
Over the past four years Red Deer has attracted Aussie music icons Regurgitator, The Grates, Clare Bowditch, Matt McHugh, Kingswood, and The Kite String Tangle, just to name a few, whilst ensuring a large number of local bands are given the chance to shine as well. If you would like to be one of these bands, Artist Submissions are now open.
