Twilight At Toronga – 27th January – 11th March

It’s time to party with the animals as Twilight at Taronga sets to kick off on 27th January.

One of the country’s premier outdoor events, Twilight at Taronga is a truly unique experience and a staple on the Sydney music calendar.

Twilight at Taronga presented by ANZ will this summer host a stellar line-up including fearless Australian frontman Peter Garrett and the Alter Egos during the opening weekend of the series, and the original lineup of Jo Jo Zep and the Falcons and The Sports in a rare performance.

triple j Hottest 100 winners The Rubens will make their Targona Zoo debut, alongside country songstress Kasey Chambers who will be supported by Thelma Plum.

Brisbane indie powerhouses Ball Park Music and The Jungle Giants come together for a special double headline performance. Quintessential Australian bands Killing Heidi, Jet and george will also perform in a series of memorable reunion shows, and Obama-endorsed jazz lord James Morrison Big Band and family favourites Björn Again will return after their sold out shows last year.

The summer series will also see Pennsylvania’s Kurt Vile and his unique brand of hazy-rock to the Zoo for the first time, and The Living End will be accompanied by a string quartet for a special ‘Twangin’ at Twilight’ stripped back show.

The closing week of the series showcases some of Canada’s most talented musicians, with performances from international indie-pop duo Tegan and Sara and singer-songwriter Martha Wainwright, as well as Scottish alt-rockers Teenage Fanclub.
