Overview
Since first unleashing its specific flavour of festival fun back in 2014, Lost Paradise has become an end-of-year staple — and the Glenworth Valley event returns from December 28, 2019 to January 1, 2020 for another packed year.
The fest's sixth annual lineup will see more than 60 acts take to the stage across a huge five days, with artistic experiences, talks, workshops and yoga classes also part of the camping festival. Of course, it's the music that'll tempt festival-goers to make the journey an hour out of Sydney. With Aria Award-winning three piece Rüfüs Du Sol, Aussie hip hop legends Hilltop Hoods, genre-blending producer Honey Dijon, indie quartet The Jungle Giants and beloved pop duo The Veronicas, there's plenty to get excited about.
Attendees will dance their way between four stages, all returning from 2018. Arcadia is where the main action is, Lost Disco will focus on bass, techno and dance music (and eye-catching visuals by 3D mapping artists), and Paradise Club will party on right into the night with DJs and surprise guests. Then there's My Mum's Disco, which not only features a digital jukebox pumping out 15,000 nostalgic beats and party favourites, but sing-alongs and more to accompany the tunes.
In-between catching live sets and making shapes, Lost Paradise offers patrons a heap of other activities, including yoga, talks and workshops at the fest's Shambhala Fields. Or, head to Lost Village to refuel or shop the fashion and art markets. The food and drink hub boasts communal tables for dining and an array of cuisines for feasting upon.
The full lineup of eats will drop soon as will the camping options, which will range from rent-a-tents to luxury glamping.
