Factory Summer Festival is turning up the heat in Brisbane with its inaugural residency at Brisbane Showgrounds. With the opening weekend proving to be a huge success even with a rainy backdrop, the summer vibes were truly felt with the pure euphoria of finally being able to be at a festival and dancing (safely)

Summer may be long gone but Perth's Factory Summer Festival has been rolling the past few weeks, delayed due to the WA government's restrictions, with The Presets the latest to grace the stage at Metro City.

And despite the best efforts of some members of the crowd to dampen the nights of others in attendance, the two-piece definitely crushed the Sydney leg of their Hi-Viz album tour.

Punters took this to heart as the Enmore Theatre was transformed into a heaving, hot pile of bodies on a memorable Saturday night in June.
