SUBSONIC TICKETS
The whole thing starts with scoring yourself (and your mates) some tickets. Third Round Tickets moving fast so be warned, with the festival’s popularity, these tickets are sure to disappear fast, so don’t wait to grab yours!
A STACKED LINEUP
Subsonic has a history of booking breakthrough artists before they hit the mainstream. Past bookings have included superstars like Jamie Jones, Boris Brejcha and Honey Dijon, so expect this year’s lineup to include future headliners you’ll be talking about for years to come.
Whether you’re into house, techno, reggae, funk, or ambient music, Subsonic has you covered. This year’s festival features an incredible mix of international, interstate, and local talent that will have festival-goers dancing through the night.
Headliners include European and American heavyweights like Radio Slave, Viken Arman, Toman, and Gene on Earth, alongside cult favourites such as DJ Zip and Sammy Dee. If you’re looking to discover fresh local talent, artists like Becca Hatch, Moontide, and Melbourne’s The Oddness are set to take things to another leve. Plus, some of Australia’s most respected DJs, like Anthony Pappa, Simon Caldwell, and Soju Gang, will be spinning some mind-blowing beats.
BYO – YES PLEASE!
Subsonic is a fully BYO event, making it one of the rare festivals where you can roll up to the dancefloor with your mates and an esky full of your favorite bevvies. Forget about waiting in long lines at the bar or draining your wallet on overpriced drinks—at Subsonic, you’re free to enjoy your own drinks without the hassle. It’s all about good vibes, great music, and making the most of your weekend without any extra stress!
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
One of the things that sets Subsonic apart from other music festivals is its location. Set amidst the lush green hills of Riverwood Downs, the festival offers a serene, natural backdrop that perfectly complements the music.
