FIRST - AN IMPORTANT NOTE: For all those that have asked, the very special video dedication to HEATH LEDGER that was shown on our screens at Homebake 08 was put together by the creative team of Heath's friends known as The Masses. Heath was a huge supporter of many Australian acts (& the local entertainment industry as a whole) including a childhood friendship and business relationship with our own N'fa (now known as No Fixed Abode). We are extremely grateful to The Masses for allowing us the opportunity to acknowledge the legacy of Heath Ledger by showing this very personal dedication to our Homebake 'masses'. For those that missed it - we include it here on our MySpace site (left of screen)
HOMEBAKE 08 – Peace In The Park - IS OVER!
"The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them."
Albert Einstein
Now's the time to say goodbye to yet another fantastic year and yet another massive Homebake Festival - in fact, our largest production ever. Closing another chapter in the life of Homebake, 2008 was an astounding success for all who did participate in our biggest festival to date acknowledging change in this fast paced world that we live in - all under
the banner of 'Peace In The Park'. Each and every band put in a stellar performance, and we hope that you - the ever loyal Homebake audience - managed to check out as
many bands as possible on the day.
In closing off this latest chapter of the Homebake 'bible of antipodean musical excellence' we extend huge thanks to all who attended; appeared at; worked on and basically,
supported Homebake 2008. We do hope you thoroughly enjoyed the event and the day as a whole. As we always say, we are very grateful for your continued support, and
as we progress to putting in to gear the 15th version of Homebake (yes, that's right, it our 15th Birthday in 2009), we are absolutely amazed that an entire generation has
virtually walked through the gates of Homebake since it's inception. At least we can proudly proclaim that the local industry is well and truly in a healthy shape.
Huge thanks to you all from all of us .

THE HOMEBAKE STORY
You don't get a reputation for being Australia's premier all-local festival without actually coming up with the goods ... time after time. So, ladies and gentlemen, we present you folk on myspace the Australian festival famously known as Homebake.
Primarily, a youth orientated Australian music event created to present (& celebrate) contemporary music over a wide variety of styles, the Homebake objective is to provide an affordable one day outdoor festival that features an array of the biggest names in Australian contemporary music....and covering a plethora of styles including pop, rock, techno, punk, country, electronic, hip hop etc.
The international standard of live music performed at each Homebake festival, is combined with an array of information, awareness & market stalls, street performers, amusement rides, community issue outlets performance art, a celebrated Cinema Tent, cultural food fare & stalls - all melded together to create the perfect festival atmosphere.
Since its inception in 1995, Homebake has built a reputation as a premier music festival featuring the most famous contemporary acts from Australia and New Zealand. Homebake has given local performers (& the arts community) a very large platform which has now successfully blurred the distinction between international and local artists.
The event has traveled interstate establishing its popularity, although has now found it's home within the most stunning location of The Domain within The Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney City, Australia. Heck, Homebake has even been made famous having starred (as itself) in the Alex Proyas feature film, Garage Days.
Homebake has played host to a huge variety of famous contemporary Australian artists including CROWDED HOUSE, JET, NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS
, POWDERFINGER
, SILVERCHAIR

, RADIO BIRDMAN
, THE GO BETWEENS
, THE LIVING END
, WOLFMOTHER

.. and the list of award winning performers continues. Each year, Homebake features over 50 artists & DJ's across four stages and is then celebrated by the release of the now famous Homebake CD compilations
Celebrating its fifteenth year in 2009, HOMEBAKE has become the most famous & widely recognised annual 'locals only' festival within the Australia (and acknowledged around the world) - and once again will feature a huge array of names and special surprises come December 2009.
