The Rise & Fall of Easterfest is a celebration of the Easterfest and Australian Gospel Music Festivals, that ran for almost two decades in Toowoomba.
The Easter of 2011 saw the biggest crowd in attendance that Easterfest had ever seen, but something on that weekend would lead to the downfall of Australia’s biggest Christian music festival.
In this episode, we’ll be looking at how Easterfest became another casualty of the music festival business.
We’ll also ask the question – could another festival, or something similar, rise up for a new generation?
You can keep those nostalgic vibes going with our special Easterfest and AGMF playlist on Spotify.
