Just days away from the highly-anticipated release of their third-album angel in realtime., Gang Of Youths are excited to announce the return of A More Perfect Union: a festival experience curated by the band, featuring some of Australia and the world’s most exciting artists, presented by triple j.
Carefully crafted from top-to-bottom, the festival will take place in Hobart and the Sandstone Point, boasting two completely unique line-ups in some of the country’s most stunning outdoor venues.
The Hobart (TAS) instalment of A More Perfect Union 2022 will take place at the Regatta Grounds on Sunday 14th August. Gang Of Youths will be joined by none other than Arlo Parks, Cub Sport, Gretta Ray, Adam Newling and The Lazy Eyes.
The Sandstone Point (QLD) instalment of A More Perfect Union 2022 will take place at Sandstone Point Hotel on Saturday 20th August. Gang Of Youths will be joined by Matt Corby, Middle Kids, Budjerah, BLESSED, Becca Hatch and Romero.
On top of the hand-selected line-up, A More Perfect Union will feature gourmet food trucks, boutique beer, wine and other untold wonders. VIP tickets will grant fans access to exclusive bar spaces, with additional shade, seating and stage views.
Tickets for both events will go on sale to the general public on Friday 25th February @ 10 AM local, but fans are able to get early access to tickets by signing up here.
A More Perfect Union was first conceived in 2018 when Gang Of Youths sold out Brisbane’s Riverstage in under 30 minutes with a line-up featuring Jack River, Thelma Plum, Luca Brasi and Charlie Collins. The rebirth of the event coincides with Gang Of Youths’ angel in realtime. Tour, coming to major arenas in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth in July/August and on sale now.

Gang Of Youths has partnered with PLUS1 to support the Aboriginal Legal Service who provide culturally safe legal services for Aboriginal people in NSW and the ACT. $1 from every A More Perfect Union ticket sold will support the Aboriginal Legal Service in their fight for justice for Aboriginal communities. www.alsnwact.org.au

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
