Return to Rio

Overview

Wisemans Ferry has been largely devoid of music since the extremely popular Playground Weekender collapsed. However, festival fans can rejoice as Return To Rio is bringing music back to the venue this November.

The three-day festival will have a deep house, disco and funk sound, with Mad Racket headlining the brand-new event. They will be supported by an eclectic mix of live bands and DJs including renowned party people S.A.S.H., R Music, Love Bombs and Disktrict. Whilst Return to Rio is curated by an entirely different group, many fan favourites from Playground Weekender shall remain, with the always popular fancy dress night and pool parties returning, as well as early morning yoga. Of course, if the partying has taken it out of you, then you can always play a round of the Del Rio resort's famous mini golf.

Return to Rio will also have an exclusive feel to it, with only 1000 golden tickets, which you need to secure entry and access to camping, going on sale to the public on September 1. So if you feel like an early summer party on the Hawkesbury, get in quickly.
