Since its inception in 2005, St Jerome’s Laneway Festival has established itself as Australia’s premiere indie music event.
Despite having a couple of years off due to the pandemic, Laneway returned in 2023 with a bumper lineup that included Stormzy, Steve Lacy, RAYE, Dominic Fike, Angie McMahon, Faye Webster and more.
Speaking about the upcoming festival, Laneway Festival Programming Coordinator Ruby Miles says, “This has to be my favourite Laneway lineup we’ve ever put together – I’m such a fangirl of all of these artists! Having Charli xcx as our headliner is a dream come true, but the lineup's depth from gates open until gates close will make Laneway 2025 so special.”
Laneway Festival takes place in Adelaide at Bonython Park on Saturday, February 15. For full ticketing details visit lanewayfestival.com.
