The University of Queensland has been slammed for hosting a music "festival" on a Monday night that attracted few attendees.
Monday night’s event “A Taste of BigSound” was meant to promote an upcoming Triple J festival in the Valley, but Semper Floreat editor Rowan Evans said that the event’s time, location and lack of any local student acts had combined to keep the crowds away.
“It also makes no sense to me why we need to give space up on our campus to advertise some Triple J festival that anyone interested in has already bought tickets to.
No one turned up and it’s no surprise why. No one had any idea who the acts were, and no one wants to listen to live music on a Monday night.”
