Falls

Falls Festival is an Australian live music event brand with a long-running tradition of welcoming the New Year through large-scale festivals featuring prominent performers. The team notes that it has spent 28 years ringing in the New Year with some of the world’s biggest acts. After that run, Falls Festival announced that it would take the New Year season off to rest, recover and recalibrate, while expressing the hope of returning in the future.

Its events take place on lands whose original and traditional custodians the organisation respectfully acknowledges, alongside Elders past, present and emerging. The brand maintains an online presence across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Spotify, and offers a newsletter subscription sign-up for updates. The subscription form requests basic contact and demographic details, including name, state, email, year of birth and phone number, with an optional sign-up related to Secret Sounds, Splendour in the Grass and Harvest Rock.

Falls Festival’s focus is live entertainment and shared New Year celebrations
