Where:  Meredith, Victoria (110 Minutes from Melbourne CBD)

https://aunty.goldenplains.com.au/what-goes-on/

“Golden Plains is a Premium Music Festival on an Epic Long Weekend in the Greatest of Outdoors. It is staged in Autumn so the weather is warm and stable. Afternoon goes on all day, the sun like honey on the trees, then a giant spike of excitement goes kabloooey at nightfall. The Summer Fool is spent by March so GP is oblivious to that particular strain of vain folly. GP is for seekers. Hope u find It.

It’s at the Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre, the same location as elder sibling Meredith Music Festival, though deliberately kept smaller – so there’s so much spacey space it’s funny.

There are no commercial sponsors, no commercial signage on site, no market stalls, and nothing being marketed to you for the whole long weekend. It’s meant to be a haven. Camp wherever you like, bring almost everything and anything if you want – you can bring a couch (perhaps with matching armchairs and an occasional table, with a drawer) and plant it in the Amphitheatre for the weekend, and soak. it. all. up. For a long weekend.”

A single-stage, free-range camping, BYO, and no commercial messages. Ample Time and Space to wibble.  A soundtrack built for wobble.  A weekend in Wadawurrung Country.

Custom-cut for The 30th Meredith, for the Supernatural Soundsystem, for specific times of day and night. For Adventure. For Celebration. A crack squad of sonic mavericks, beyond the sum of its parts. More than a list, more than a register. A three-day-two-night odyssey supreme, with a beginning, middle, and end in which to lose yourself, find yourself, expand yourself, and feel feel feel feel feel feel feel. Then do it again, twice. Magic O’Clock strikes at any time – sometimes selected, mostly unexpected.

All on the One and Only Stage, with the Evolving Atmospherics of the Supernatural Amphitheatre, and Mother Nature on the lights.”

When: November 2023

Where‍: Benalla, Victoria (200km from Melbourne)

http://www.happywandererfestival.com

“The Happy Wanderer Festival started a few years back when a brother and sister and a pair of adopted kin, gathered friends together for a working bee on a beautiful farm in North East Victoria, and the idea for a festival was born.

A truck was fashioned into a stage, cows temporarily re-homed from a natural amphitheater, a tractor adorned with fairy lights, camp set up by Broken River and several Melbourne bands hoodwinked into taking the trip up to Yin Barun. With all of that came a few wanderers, and that company of friends has grown to what the Happy Wanderer is today.

It’s an ecology of good local music, fresh thoughtful food and drink, creators and adventurers that will take you along their wanderings, and soulful good times. Toes in the earth, love in the heart, laughter in the belly, wander together to a place you belong.”
