SXSW Sydney 2023 Screen Festival announces world premiere of Hot Potato: The Story of the Wiggles as public wristbands go on sale

Screen creatives of all stripes will gather for the inaugural SXSW Sydney Screen Festival this October (15th – 21st) as a collection of compelling and next generation screen content from across the Asia-Pacific region is highlighted at the renowned festival.

Following the announcement of the first wave of premiere titles (you can read about them here), the SXSW 2023 Sydney Screen festival will spotlight the best of the region, showcasing an extensive collection of screen content, bringing the global creative community to Sydney to deliver an experience at the forefront of discovery, creativity and innovation.

From red carpet premieres, including Hot Potato: The Story of The Wiggles, features, shots, series, music videos to an XR showcase, the SXSW Sydney Screen Festival has it all, accessible with a SXSW Sydney Screen Festival wristband. The SXSW Sydney 2023 Screen Festival wristband is your chance to catch unlimited screenings over six days and seven nights.

An Australian Amazon Original documentary, Hot Potato: The Story of The Wiggles will premiere as part of the line-up of the first ever SXSW Sydney Screen Festival. The global premiere will be supported by special appearances by The Wiggles, including Q&A sessions and performances.

The film is the improbable story of The Wiggles, four friends who record a one-off album of children’s music in the early ‘90s and change the global music industry forever. Recognisable by their blue, red, yellow and purple skivvies, Anthony Field, Murray Cook, Greg Page and Jeff Fatt became an unlikely music phenomenon equipped with early childhood teaching fundamentals and a dose of self-belief.  Surmounting numerous rejections from industry producers, The Wiggles took their career into their own hands and became the most successful children’s act of all time.

Accessible with a SXSW Sydney 2023 wristband (which are available for purchase from Friday, August 25th at SXSWSydney.com – don’t miss out on Early Bird pricing of just $240), along with other red carpet premieres at the ICC’s Darling Theatre and cinemas across inner Sydney, the documentary will have its world premiere at the Screen Festival before it launches on Prime Video globally in more than 240 countries and territories.
