A melodious blend of eclectic and eccentric.

Overview

Harvest Festival returns to leafy Parramatta Park on 17 November and is bringing a lineup sure to make even the most nonchalant of festivalgoers suffer a pang of time clash panic. This years Harvest ticketholders will be treated to one of the more eclectic lineups on the festival calendar, with a myriad of exciting national and international acts gracing five musical stages, while a “Campfire” stage (think Erotic Fan Fiction and a Comedy Picnic) keeps things sufficiently eccentric.

Euphonic wizards Beck, Sigur Ros and Beirut will head up a mass bliss-out session on The Great Lawn with the assistance of The Dandy Warhols, Los Campesinos! and Winter People. The Windmill Stage will welcome Santigold, Grizzly Bear, Ben Folds Five and Dexy’s, while Crazy P, Fuck Buttons and Chromatics will be sending out groovy astral vibes from The Big Red Tractor.

An amped up arts explosion adds to the excitement this year, and did we mention that sightings of fist pumping and/or general trashiness are notably less frequent than at other major music festivals? Get your tickets here.
