The classic rock show is popular with the punters, selling out its capacity well in advance each year since inception, according to a statement issued by Frontier Touring, which will promote the Sydney, Brisbane and Werribee dates.

“It sells out very quickly in Werribee,” promoter Duane McDonald says, “and every year we get requests from interstate on when we will be bringing One Electric Day further afield.”

Jimmy Barnes headlined the 2018 show at Werribee Park, alongside The Angels, Ian Moss, Jon Stevens, and others, with a record 13,000 fans turning out.

In previous years, ARIA Hall of Famers Icehouse, Russell Morris and Daryl Braithwaite and have graced the One Electric Day stage.

Pre-sales start from Tuesday (June 4) and the general on-sale begins Thursday (June 6).
