Today we’ve unveiled a brand new program, THE BUNKR, to offer support, connection and refuge to the busy crew, staff and artists working behind-the-scenes at Australian music festivals. It will be trialled at this year’s Splendour in the Grass from 21-23 July 2023.
THE BUNKR aims to provide a grounding haven amidst the backstage bustle of a busy music festival where artists, managers, crew and backstage workers can take a seat, have a chat and connect with free mental health and wellbeing resources.
There will be tailored support from friendly members of our team, including in-house Psychologist, Ash King, and First Nations Community Engagement/Case Worker, Will Oui.
This program strives to help music workers to recharge, reconnect and restore whilst working tirelessly to put on an incredible show for one of Australia’s most iconic music festivals.
