Overview
Every year, the picturesque coastal town of Kiama invites some of the world's biggest artists to the South Coast for the Changing Tides Festival. After selling out two years in a row, this summer ritual will be headlined by big international faves and homegrown Aussie stars on Saturday, November 22.
Leading the lineup is UK heavyweight Sam Fender, fresh off a near sold-out Australian tour. Known for his raw lyricism and anthemic indie rock, and of course, his viral hit 'Seventeen Going Under', he's set to be a festival highlight. He's joined by Noah Cyrus, who'll showcase her hauntingly beautiful new album I Want My Loved Ones to Go With Me in what promises to be one of the more emotionally charged sets of the day.
Adding to the energy are local favourites and 2015 winners of Triple J Hottest 100, The Rubens, ready with their sing-along classics. Surf-rock legends Skegss will also bring Aussie representation to the lineup, as well as local indie darlings The Rions and MAY-A. Rising UK star Holly Humberstone will also be joining the bill, plus the boys from The Inspired Unemployed's music outfit, Retired Gentlemen's League. Also on the lineup: Boy Soda, Chloe Parché, and a yet-to-be-announced Triple J Unearthed act.
There will be plenty of curated food and drink offerings, all against the backdrop of the beautiful Kiama seaside. So if you plan on heading down for Changing Tides Festival, then we recommend staying a bit longer to enjoy all that Kiama has to offer.
Tickets are now on sale via the website, but be sure to grab them early as they will likely sell out very soon.
