Trofest Jnr was moved to a real cinema with real aircon on Friday because the weather was just too damn hot. Nearly 40,000 turned out at Parramatta Park to see the finalists in the main event and make social with each other. In 2006, the attendance figure was said to be 100,000 for the Domain while 2011 is said to be the largest ever with a million people watching in a combination of the main screening, a version on TV, and streamed subsidiaries around Australia.
