Performance NotesThe Wombats will be the Hall's first Albert Session, a lower-rental package aimed at younger artists who have never headlined at the Hall to play here to help attract a younger audience.

A press conference was held in the Prince Consort room (Verdi restaurant Bay 5) before the event. School children were invited, alongside Press, to interview The Wombats.
