The Australian Open Festival

The Australian Open have just announced their music programme for the illustrious Finals Festival, set to take place over 3 days during the finals weekend of The Australian Open. 

The lineup, which features global sensations Groove Armada, Rudimental and Yaeji, iconic Australian artists DMA'S and Ruel, and LGBTQI+ champions Peach PRC and AO Pride Ambassador Tash Sultana are just the beginning of the acts confirmed for this year's lineup. 

Untitled Group, Australia's largest independent music and events promoter are leading the music programming, returning for their second year. The group are best known for music festivals such as Beyond The Valley, Wildlands, Grapevine Gathering and Ability Fest.

Alongside this, 'Raingurl' creator Yaeji, Djanaba, Anesu and DJ Luv You will be taking to John Cain Arena.

Adding on to the venue upgrade this will be the biggest open air music performance the John Cain Arena has seen in the history of its existence.
