Condom balloons, paper airplanes and flying Rizla packs brought mayhem to this year's Underage Festival in Victoria Park. Pimp-suited teens brushed shoulders with skinny-jeaned indie kids, uniting as one to have a good time.

The environment was relaxed and wasn’t as hyped as last year. It was weird seeing no one fucked on drugs or wasted on alcohol. The young crowd seemed to have little gig experience.
Disappointment came early on when it was announced that Blaine, lead singer of the Mystery Jets, had a problem with his leg and the band pulled out, which was followed by more bad news when the Horrors were a no-show too.
The biggest highlight was Gallows, making the moshpit form a colossal circle, causing the demented crowd to go wild - if you want to start a party, invite Gallows.
The kids are keeping the spirit of anarchy alive and well at this year's Underage…
