New Zealand's most epic summer party 'Soundsplash' turns up the heat, yet again, with its sizzling first lineup announcement for January 2020. This much-awaited fete will be hitting two of NZ's summer hotspots Raglan's Wainui Reserve and Timaru's Caroline Bay.

Wainui Reserve—right on Raglan's internationally-renowned coastline—has served as the perfect location for Soundsplash in past years, and now promoters are thrilled that they're also taking the magic south to Timaru's picturesque Caroline Bay.

"Soundsplash is a very special festival to us. It sits as a rite of passage for the youth, whilst also focusing on international music for people of all ages to enjoy. We are proud to be able to now bring that spirit to the South Island, specifically to a stunning place like Caroline Bay." - Mitch Lowe, Soundsplash promoter

"Soundsplash is an ever-evolving platform for musicians, artists, ideas and worthwhile causes. With a new vitality, it has allowed us to hone in on attendee experience and improve on that every year. I'm grateful for the opportunity to spread the Soundsplash vibe with a community that has great environmental initiatives that align with the festival." - Brian Ruawai, Soundsplash organiser

"What an opportunity it is having New Zealand's longest-running festival to our district. Caroline Bay is iconic to Timaru and the perfect setting for a South Island festival." - Damon Odey, Timaru Mayor
