Vacations’ MATES Festival Giveaway: Win Passes, Meal Tickets, & A Signed Poster

On November 16, two-time platinum selling Australian band Vacations will host MATES Festival at the Bellwether in Los Angeles. Devised and curated by the band’s frontman Campbell Burns, and launched in 2022 in Australia, MATES will feature artists like Yot Club, Ian Sweet, and Kacy Hill with the intention of fostering global music connections.

Stereogum will be on-site as a partner, covering the scene at MATES as it makes the leap from hometown event to international blowout. We recently caught up with Burns to discuss the fest and now we’re giving one of you a chance to attend for free.

One winner will receive a pair of tickets, a pair of meal passes (Hi-Fi Pizza Pi), and a signed gig poster!

The only requirement for entry is that you must be a subscriber to Stereogum’s essential weekly email The Stereogum Digest at the time we select the winner. Before you enter the contest, sign up for that below (or here) if you haven’t yet.

This giveaway is open to readers worldwide, though you’re responsible for getting yourself to and from the Bellwether. The entry period ends Friday, October 25 at noon ET. Make sure to check your email around then so you can respond if you win. (If you don’t write back in a day or two, we’ll have to pick another winner.) Just enter your email in the form below (or here if you can’t see it for some reason).

One entry per email. We’ll update the page once the winners are contacted. Good luck… and if you don’t win you can grab tickets right here!
