We woke this morning to the new that The Boss is headed to the Hunter. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will play Hope Estate on February 18 as part of their tour of Australia and New Zealand. Here’s everything you need to know.
Bruce Springsteen
For one month Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be calling Australia and New Zealand home, with nine shows sure to delight fans who have rabidly been monitoring the international movements of The River Tour. The tour includes a show at Hope Estate on February 18.
Tickets
Frontier Members pre-sale via frontiertouring.com/brucespringsteen begins Tuesday 20 September. (Pre-sale times are staggered per show. Visit the website for more details).
General public goes on sale from Friday 23 September.
Hope Estate
Hope Estate was founded by Michael Hope, who describes himself as ‘just a country boy from Young’. A pharmacist by trade, he built up a prosperous chain of pharmacies in rural NSW and Sydney before deciding to move out of Sydney.
Wondering if you should drive to the show or catch the bus? Wonder no longer. You should catch the bus. Hope employ an army of police and traffic control staff after the show to help cars leave as quickly as possible, but the Pokolbin road system blocks up really quickly and they can’t control that. Even though they offer VIP Parking with some of our hospitality packages, you’re still looking at a long wait.
JET to reform
Aussie favourites, JET will perform as special guests for the Hope Estate show on February 18
Diesel
DIESEL will also hit the stage at Hope Estate as a special guest.
