The Kite String Tangle, Hot Dub Time Machine and more announced for St Kilda Festival 2020

Australia's biggest free live music festival, St Kilda Festival, has announced the line up to its 40th year and it looks like they're set on celebrating in true style with over 50 acts locked in to perform across multiple stages.

Focusing on showcasing some of the hottest talent going, the vast line up includes something for everyone, from renowned party-starter Hot Dub Time Machine to Stonefield, The Kite String Tangle, Mama Kin Spender, Gordon Koang and so many more set to play on February 9th. The festival has also shared the news of a secret performer, but we won't know who it is until January 31st.

It doesn't stop at the music though, as the festival also has announced a range of workshops, community group activities, rides, food and market stalls, as well as a very special "iconic 80s trends" dress code for the day to double down on its celebration of its 40 year history.

Kicking off from 10am on February 9th, the 2020 St Kilda Festival is shaping up to be an absolute ripper. For more info, head to the festival website and check the full music line up below!
