Rifflandia is known for its artistic breadth, especially with regards to its programming at The Park
When: Friday, Sept. 15 through Sunday, Sept. 17The annual Rifflandia music festival is known for its artistic breadth, especially with regards to its programming at The Park. And true to form, the 2023 lineup set for Royal Athletic Park this weekend does not deviate.
The first of three days of all-ages programming at Royal Athletic Park gets underway at 3 p.m. Friday, and serves as the daytime/early evening counterpart to the 19+ area at Electric Avenue, the festival’s late night instalment. Electric Avenue, held at the Matullia Holdings land adjacent to Phillips Brewery, drew a record crowd of 8,000 last week during its Saturday finale, setting a single-day record for Electric Avenue attendance in the process.
That level of success was not seen as a guarantee, as Blasko and his team thought long and hard about the decision to split the event — formerly held over four consecutive days — into a combined six days of events over two separate weeks. But it wound up being the right move. Having days off between Electric Avenue and The Park also meant the stage crew could set-up the Royal Athletic Park site ahead of schedule for the first time ever, Blasko added.
The Park site will remain largely unchanged from last year, but a few tweaks will be evident. There’s an expanded seating/shade area near Cook Street, which will create more space in the centre of the field. Alcohol point-of-sale stations will occupy a big footprint, but attendees will have additional options for the first time ever at The Park, according to Blasko.
