Action Bronson, The Preatures and Peking Duk to Bring in NYE at Beyond the Valley Festival

Phillip Island is going to play host to more than cascades of fairy penguins this New Year's Eve. Victoria's inaugural festival Beyond the Valley has confirmed the first three names on the lineup (and it's already looking pretty badass).

With the full lineup announcement set for next month, the brand new festival has confirmed Action Bronson, The Preatures and Peking Duk to play the NYE event. One of Australia's most talked-about fivesomes, The Preatures, were locked in by the BTV team after lead singer Isabella Manfredi let the performance slip to Beat. "It’s New Years Eve, on an island, with Victorians. What else could you ask for, a hangover spa?"

New York's hypeworthy rapper Action Bronson has also been confirmed by the festival team, as well as Canberran duo Peking Duk. It's a pretty big (and on-trend) haul for a new festival, one apparently expected to draw over 10,000. Beyond the Valley promoters have said the whole lineup will be "a cohesive spread of genres and styles" which really gives nothing much away.

With the camping festival set to snuggle into the shoreside fields of Phillip Island from December 30 – January 1, the site will also feature "a pop-up luxury hotel with its very own concierge and first class amenities including a daily hangover spa," (confirming Manfredi's hints). The team have confirmed cocktail bars, high quality food, two massive stages and probably enough portaloos for Action Bronson to do his entire set from.

Beyond the Valley will take place on Phillip Island from December 30 – January 1. Watch the teaser for the festival here (with beats by AlunaGeorge... another hint?):
