“I'm so pumped about this lineup. PNAU are Australian music royalty, Logic1000 and Kito are doing massive things internationally, and we've got incredible emerging artists across the board, including artists with disability. I can’t wait to see everyone on the dancefloor for another huge Ability Fest,” said Alcott.
