“Set lengths for artists will differ for each depending on their contractual requirements and artist requests, but each set will range from 20 minutes to 50 minutes and still allow enough time to perform their biggest hits,” promoter Glenn Meikle said in a statement.
“This year’s line-up is packed with artists responsible for some of R&B and hip hop’s biggest hits of the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s, and we’re excited to see the crowd respond to the high energy of our artists.”
Fellow promoter Matthew Spratt added, “This line-up is massive, and we can’t wait to bring 16 international artists who are icons and hitmakers in their genre to one stage.
“We’re confident the massive new line-up will cater to all R&B and hip-hop fans across Australia and New Zealand.”
