WOMADelaide has revealed another 38 acts for 2024 – including a new show by the company behind feather-filled aerial spectacle Place des Anges – with significant changes also planned to the site after concerns this year about overcrowding.
The headline acts may grab attention, but there are plenty of lesser-known music gems waiting to be discovered at WOMADelaide. Festival associate director Annette Tripodi suggests eight must-see artists in the 2023 line-up.
SA arts and culture news in brief: WOMADelaide announces final 35 artists for next year, award-winning play Euphoria among highlights of Country Arts SA’s 2023 program unveiled this week, and Cabaret Festival’s Variety Gala proves a hot ticket.
WOMADelaide has revealed a further 30 acts bound for Botanic Park in 2023, including Senegalese star Youssou N’Dour, Scottish folk-rockers The Proclaimers, English singer-activist Billy Bragg, and multiple-ARIA-winning artist Sampa the Great.
Bon Iver, Florence + The Machine and the spectacular but controversial feather-fuelled aerial show Place des Anges will be among the headliners at next year’s WOMADelaide festival in Botanic Park.
