The grounds of ol’ Collingwood, aka Victoria Park, was a pillar of the community as the home of the Magpies during the 19th and 20th centuries. Now, it becomes the backdrop to Australia’s greatest football rivalry.
As the Rockdogs and Megahertz go head-to-head on the field, accompanying entertainment will be fulfilled by an incredible bill of acts. Rock lords Spiderbait will be joined by the likes of The Peep Tempel, Jen Cloher, Deborah Conway and Willy Zygier as well as She Said Zed performing The Go-Betweens classic Streets of Your Town. For the kids, Murray Wiggle and Wally Meanie’s Bubblegum Machine will take to the stage.
The Go-Betweens’ 1988 classic will also assume the theme of an event positioned to support Reclink Australia’s work with disadvantaged communities across the country. From its inception back in 1993, the Reclink Community Cup now rallies more than 10,000 avid followers who collectively raise over $100,000 every year for the cause.
