Simon Daly is the founder of Australia's most successful camping music and arts festival. Now in its 19th year the allure of great musical theatre surrounded by a stunning backdrop keeps music lovers from around the country coming back again and again to experience one of Australia's true national treasures!

Simon took time out of his busy schedule to share his thoughts on why Falls festival is so successful, the state of the Australian festival scene and the challenges he faces of running 2 separate sites in Marion Bay (TAS) and Lorne (VIC) simultaneously.

Simon also shares a great piece of advise for anyone who is looking to start up their own music festival!
