Heaps Good Festival is back, and it’s promising to be bigger and better than ever before. The festival, which made its stunning debut in Adelaide earlier this year, is set to light up the South Australian, Victorian, and Queensland music scenes during the 2023/2024 New Year period.
Expanding its horizons, Heaps Good Festival is taking over Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl & Surrounds on New Year’s Eve and Sandstone Point on Tuesday, 2 January, before returning to its Adelaide roots at Adelaide Showground on Saturday, 6 January. All three shows will be single-day events in easily accessible locations, promising a truly epic experience for festival-goers.

Now, let’s talk about the lineup that’s set to bring the party to life.
Kicking off the festivities is none other than the electronic music titan Flume. Celebrating a decade since his self-titled debut album catapulted him into the stratosphere, Flume has amassed billions of streams worldwide, and achieved Platinum sales in multiple countries.
Joining the party are British rockers Foals, who bring with them a UK #1 album, five Top 3 records, and the 2020 BRIT Award for Best Group. With headline performances at Glastonbury, Latitude, and Reading and Leeds Festivals, Foals are sure to electrify the Heaps Good stage.
Few musicians can rival the influence and originality of The Avalanches. Their 2000 debut album “Since I Left You” laid the blueprint for the future of sample-based music in the 21st century.

Critically acclaimed act SBTRKT will grace Heaps Good Victoria and Queensland with tracks from his latest release “The Rat Road.” Meanwhile, Basement Jaxx (DJ set) will have Melbourne grooving into the new year with legendary hits like “Red Alert,” “Do Your Thing,” “Romeo,” “Where’s Your Head At,” “Good Luck,” and many more.
