Pitch Music & Arts Festival 2020
The multi-day Victorian camping festival is back with 47 musical acts, plus light installations and immersive art.
Overview
Pitch Music & Arts Festival is back for 2020, this time with an even bigger lineup of electronic acts and visual art on display. The event will again take over Mafeking — about three hours northwest of Melbourne — from Friday, March 6 to Tuesday, March 10.
The BYO camping festival is brought to you by the team behind Beyond the Valley, who will set up a satellite community out in the bush and invite festival-goers to pitch a tent — camping is included in your weekend ticket, or splash out extra for a glamping setup — then fully immerse themselves in the weekend's festivities. Expect a bunch of house, techno and disco tracks over the four days, with 47 music acts on the bill.
The international 2020 lineup features Russia's Nina Kraviz; Berlin-based DJ Objekt; Midland (UK); South Korea's cosmic disco DJ Shubostar; Aurora Halal (US) who'll be playing a live set; Canadian techno pioneer Richie Hawtin; Ben UFO (UK); and genre-defying selector Hunee (The Netherlands) of Rush Hour Recordings; and new label Lifetones.
Local names like Kllo, Moopie, Hiatus Kaiyote, Fantastic Man, Collarbones and Late Nite Tuff Guy are also on the docket.
On the art side of things, you can expect CGI, spacial design and light installations from a host of local and international artists and creative companies, all of which are arranged to interact with the festival at large.
