Techno Picnic is a lakeside series of international melodic techno headliners without the price tag. Enjoy guests and red hot locals DJing in the sunshine while rugrats wobble on the grass. The whole thing wraps at 8pm. Sunday’s a school night, after all. Bring your mates. Bring the family. Bring a picnic blanket and an esky. Or bring nothing and indulge when you get there. Curated by old hats of the techno scene. International producers playing daytime techno by the lake. This is not some bloke with a Bluetooth speaker and a Spotify playlist. Hosted by Soul Defender and the crew behind Escape Ferocity and The Vault. BYO whatever you want. There's also a proper bar slinging cocktails, local wines and red spiders. Premium food stalls if you don’t have the energy to pack lunch. The party moves to different spots beside Lake Burley Griffin. Location details only go out to ticket holders. Presale: $24 adults, $15 kids. Door: $30. That's less than a round at most Canberra pubs. Natascha Polké is a very impressive Swiss producer who sings, plays keys and cranking techno. An artist who does it all and makes it look easy. Harvest Club Junque will spin delicious melodic sound scape style progressive house and techno. Presale is live. Grab your tickets before they hit $30 at the door or sell out. The debut: Techno Picnic with Natascha Polké (Live), Doppel (Album Launch) and Club Junque Sunday April 12, 2pm - 8pm. The follow-up: Techno Picnic with the great D-Nox (Brazil) Sunday November 1, tix out soon. Powered by Tickets for good, not greed Humanitix dedicates 100% of profits from booking fees to charity

Formed in 2013 in Exeter, England, Black Foxxes has always been a form of catharsis and raw expression. It is a necessity that comes from within, not from external forces or market demands. The core philosophy: Raw Honesty, No Gimmicks.

Some versions of songs turn into 20 minute transcendent jam sections, other shows offer short, raw, ragged versions. But it’s all real. Proudly presented by Crushing Promotions.
