We're on the two week countdown until the 2016 edition of North West Festival kicks off in Port Hedland and boy are we EXCITED. The festival crew always manages to deliver an incredible line-up and this year's talent is no different.

Need we remind you? Making the trip this year will be...

The Rubens, You Am I, Xavier Rudd, Sarah Blasko, The Veronicas, ShockOne, Urthboy, Allday, Salmonella Dub, Harts, Methyl Ethel & Miss Max.

Here's what you can look forward to in Port Hedland next weekend. The beautiful port town will be brimming with heaps of awesome fringe activities! If you head into town early you can celebrate at The Hedland Art Awards, grab some noms and check out The West End Markets, and quench your thirst at the Spring Into Cider event.

And of course you can't forget the Sunday Sundowner at the Yacht Club with an evening of acoustic style acts featuring Tim Rogers (You Am I), Jae Laffer (The Panics), The Elephant and The Coffee Table & Tanya Ransom.

We weren't kidding that there's a ton going on to immerse yourselves in and grab some of those relaxed holiday vibes next weekend. Check out the full list of fringe activities and events here. 

So pack up your mates and your family, and schlepp yourselves over for a chill weekend in Port Hedland listening to some of the country's best!
