Introducing... Sega and the Boombox
I’ll tell you what you want. What you really, really want... Sega and the Boombox! Get ready to sing along into the early hours with a badass party band playing the very best pop music of the 1990s! Sega and the Boombox is an electrifying live band that brings an awesome contemporary energy to the tunes of your childhood, sending the likes of Britney and the Fresh Prince crashing right into the 21st century.
Picture this, you've had the best night of your life with your closest friends. The sun is coming up behind the beautiful towers of Founder's building. Sega and the Boombox is playing your favourite throwback song, life is good.
What Else is Happening?
We'll be transforming Founder's Square into a festival zone like no other, covering the area with a tent to offer you some much-welcomed shelter in case it rains. Street food stalls, fun activities, fairground rides, and bars will line the outside of the Square providing you with all the entertainment and refreshment you need.
We're excited to welcome some familiar faces to this year's event. You'll be joined by favourite SU resident DJs TOM ONE, Pammi Pasqual, and Cee B for all the best beats. DJ eFe-J, JayR, and DJ Shiv Varma will also be here to officially start your summer.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of what's on at Summer Ball! Keep your eyes peeled for another drop next Friday 12 May as we announce some of your Festival Stage acts!
