Once again, the Falls Music and Arts Festival will be coming to Marion Bay, Byron Parklands and Lorne this New Years’ Eve. This year, the festival has added a fourth location, Freemantle in Western Australia one week later on January 7 and 8.
Everyone loves a good NYE fest, and Falls is Australia’s longest running. Every year it manages to secure the cream of the world’s musical crop, so we knew to expect big things once again. After all, what kind of artist wouldn’t want to make their way down to sunny Australia?
Falls Festival 2016 has finally announced their full lineup, and it could be the best yet. Start planning your New Years Eve, punters.
Earlier this month Falls unveiled Childish Gambino as their first headliner, presumably to build the hype as Lost Paradise and Beyond the Valley were announcing their acts. Additionally, this morning we given another taste of what was to come, with London Grammar being added to Falls’ roster. In 2014, London Grammar was forced to cancel their Australian shows including Splendour in the Grass due to medical reasons, so we’d wager there are a ton of Aussies drooling to see this act.
Now, behold the full first announcement in all it’s glory. Mixing Aussie and international, this year’s going to have something for every festival-goer there is.
