As always, Meredith’s “No D‑‑khead Policy” is in place, with a ticket to the festival including entry, camping and parking. It’s BYO with no commercial messaging, with the festival proudly independent since being founded in 1991.
Despite evolving into one of Australia’s most iconic festivals, Meredith has stayed true to its roots and continues to deliver incredible lineups year after year without any corporate interference.
Last year’s festival was immense and featured the likes of Jamie xx, Mannequin Pussy, Genesis Owusu, Angie McMahon, Waxahatchee and Fat White Family, and considering the lineup announced so far for the 2025 edition, it’s shaping up as another home run for the Meredith crew.
Meredith Music Festival is held at the Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre from Friday 5 December to Sunday 7 December. You can enter the ballot for tickets here.
