Promoters have announced the first batch of artists set to perform at next year’s South By Southwest (SXSW), with a stonking 191 names featured on the bill.
Among them are the likes of Algiers, Flowerkid, Kalush Orchestra and Jaguar Jonze, as well as a slew of acts – 41 altogether – hailing from the UK. Local exports will include Coach Party, Crawlers, Demob Happy, Exit Kid, Folly Group, The Golden Dregs, Jane Weaver, The Lounge Society, The Orielles, Poster Paints and Steam Down.
SXSW 2023 will take place in its usual home of Austin, Texas, running over six days from Monday March 13 to Saturday 18. It’ll be the main festival’s 27th edition, and the second to be held in-person since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic; it returned to its usual format this year, after being cancelled in 2020 and held virtually in 2021.
Registration for delegate badges are open now. Music-only badges will run for $695 (£611), while film and TV badges will cost $995 (£874), and interactive event badges will cost $1,095 (£962). Platinum badges – which allow delegates access to events across all categories – will run for $1,395 (£1,226). More information can be found here.
