Celebration Of Bon Scott To Take Place On Australia’s ‘Highway To Hell’

To mark the 40th anniversary of Bon Scott’s passing, a stretch of Australia’s real-life “Highway To Hell” will be closed down for a huge party celebrating the life of the late singer.

Organizers will shut six miles of Canning Highway on March 1st, 2020, creating the world’s longest festival stage, with eight bands set to perform AC/DC covers on the backs of slow-moving trucks.

The roadway originally earned its notoriety following a series of fatal crashes before the band used the name for their 1979 album.

According to The Guardian, event producer Pete Stone has spent several months speaking with city officials to pull off the feat, taking more than 200 meetings.
