Duane McDonald’s One Electric Day has created yet another record with a sell-out for 2019 in Werribee in the fastest ever time.

When Southern Sons reform for One Electric Day in November it will be their first shows in 25 years.

Duane McDonald’s baby One Electric Day is going national for 2019 with the much loved Melbourne event expanding to Launceston, Sydney, Brisbane and the Barossa.

Vanessa Amorosi has just finished up touring for Duane McDonald’s Red Hot Summer and had the time of her life being back in Australia and on the road with people she considers her music family.

Duane McDonald’s Red Hot Summer has just wrapped up its biggest season ever with 181,267 tickets sold for the 2019 season.

Red Hot Summer pulled another record crowd for Noosa this past weekend with three artists over 60 and who can still pull 10,000+ fans to a show.

Labor has promised to overhaul current laws in relation to ticket sales for live music and events if (make that a when) it assumes power in May 2019.

Suzi Quatro will be back in Australia in 2019 to headline the second series of Red Hot Summer.

The Mornington and Bribie Island editions of Red Hot Summer featuring Jimmy Barnes and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts have sold-out within days of going on sale.

Duane McDonald’s belief that Australian want to hear Australian music has paid off big time with One Electric Day.

Duane McDonald’s One Electric Day has developed into one of the greatest music events in Australia. This year, Duane has outdone himself with a line-up that has delivered 74 Top 40 hits in Australia – Jimmy Barnes, The Angels, Ian Moss, Jon Stevens, Richard Clapton and Thirsty Merc.

Duane McDonald, founder of touring company Regional Touring, is demanding changes to the law after pre-sale tickets for John Farnham’s Wollongong concert were snapped up this morning and immediately on sold by scalpers.

John Farnham will be back at Werribee Park outside Melbourne to headline One Electric Day for 2017.

Duane McDonald’s Red Hot Summer festival has grown to become one of Australia’s most appreciated music festivals.

In the five or so years that One Electric Day has been around it has become one of Melbourne’s most treasured music events.

The Lakeside Twilights music festival at Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree foreshore has sold-out more than a month in advance.

John Farnham will perform a second show for Red Hot Summer at Bribie Island in February.

Tex Perkins will serve a third term performing ‘Far From Folsom’, the songs of Johnny Cash, at Old Melbourne Gaol.

Tex Perkins will present his Johnny Cash tribute show, based on Cash’s recorded performances from the Folsom and San Quentin prisons in the 60s in the US, in decommissioned prisons throughout Australia.

Heath Franklin’s alter-ego Chopper will visit regional Victoria to spread the word of uniting Australia and New Zealand into the nation Anzakistan.

Duane McDonald’s One Electric Day has sold over 7000 tickets after tickets went on sale this morning.

Queensland will host Australia’s newest music festival Sandstone Rocks featuring Hoodoo Gurus and Jon Stevens at Sandstone Point north of Brisbane in September.

Jimmy Barnes and Icehouse will appear together on the same bill for the very first time for One Electric Day in November.

Three years ago Duane McDonald thought up this crazy idea of giving Australian music fans a great day out. Who would have thought that such a crazy idea would be a hit? Three years on, the Red Hot Summer tour is one of Australia’s most popular live events.

Three years ago promoter Duane McDonald had an idea to give families a big day out with great Australian music at a value priced ticket. One Electric Day was born.

One Electric Day will kick off for 2015 at Melbourne’s Werribee Park Mansion today.

Duane McDonald’s Sounds By The River, a part of Regional Touring’s upcoming Red Hot Summer roster of music events, has won a South Australian Tourism Award for Best Festivals and Events.

Duane McDonald, the man behind the Red Hot Summer and One Electric Day events, has a brand new music experience on the way – Legends In The Vines.

The Red Hot Summer tour, the labour of love for promoter Duane McDonald, has become the proof that Australian’s really do want to hear Australian music.

Tickets for the 2016 Red Hot Summer tour will be available from 9am Thursday.
