SwampFest22 - SwampFest Super Show Lineup Announced

Founded back in 1988 and going strong as ever, Te Papaioea's iconic all-ages and alcohol-free venue The Stomach are celebrating their vibrant music community this October with the two night SwampFest2022 double whammy of the SwampFest Super Show and the To The Front Te Papaioea Showcase — both presented by Creative Sounds Society (who run The Stomach and facilitate an awesome variety of accessible music resources). The Saturday night SwampFest Super Show sports an all-killer lineup of nine acts all up across two stages, punters can look forward a redecorated Stomach aiming to put "the 'Swamp' back into SwampFest" and are encouraged to "embrace your inner swamp dweller, dress in your favourite swamp regalia, and blend into the surroundings with your uncle’s funny smelling camo gear".

Marking the inaugural To The Front Te Papaioea programme (happening from 7th-9th October), the Friday evening Showcase event will provide a supportive space for emerging talents to play new music to friends, family, supporters and their mentors.

Creative Sounds Society presents SwampFest22, a celebration of the swamp’s music at local swamp all-ages stalwart The Stomach.

A HUGE line up showcasing a diverse range of local artists across two stages and all hailing from mighty Swampton! Electronic artists will perform on our swampy side stage ‘The Maimai’ and bands will be taking to the main stage ‘The Lagoon‘.

SwampFest22 will see The Stomach transformed as you've never seen it before. Putting the 'Swamp' back into SwampFest with inspiration from this year's poster designed by the incredible Shit Imma Artist. Embrace your inner swamp dweller, dress in your favourite swamp regalia, and blend into the surroundings with your uncle’s funny smelling camo gear.

We are packing in so many artists, back to back, over the course of one huge night. Doors will open from 7:00pm. The first artist will be kicking off at 7:30pm.
