Sunbury Pop 1973

The Festival was the second of five annual music events held on a private farm in Sunbury over the Australia Day long weekend, and has become iconic in the history of local popular music. It is often referred to as Australia's Woodstock, and many believe it marked the moment the Hippy movement died, and the Pub Rock era emerged.

Sunbury '73 (as it was officially known) ran from Saturday January 27 to Monday January 29. The attendance was somewhere between 25,000 - 30,000 and the entry fee was $5.00 (1 day), $7.00 (2 days) or $8.00 (3 days).
