Monday, February 1st 2010. Britomart Square, Auckland, New Zealand.

The very first Laneway Festival in Auckland city is set to be an absolute doozy. From the seminal to the scene-starting, the esoteric to the exhilarating, the Laneway Festival brings you a roll call of artists that is as exciting as it is diverse. Laneway is a festival put together by folks who love music, for folks who love music- and there are plenty of us in New Zealand.

Laneway was founded by friends; compelled to create a street party in Melbourne for their mates in bands. The festival was an instant success and grew to Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth and now us! Auckland Laneweay Festival is in the perfect location: Britomart Square, centre city! What’s more, Britomart is just 2 steps from Britomart train and bus station. The square is freshly furbished, complete with sculpture and a park. Now add your favourite bands and plenty of access to cool refreshments, beer and tasty morsels from fresh food stalls = The St. Jerome’s Auckland Laneway Festival.

Every year Laneway features the best iconic and up-and-coming indie bands; that music lovers can enjoy, city centre. This is just the first announcement. We will announce more great acts in December. But for now, ta da:

ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN
FLORENCE & THE MACHINE
