Indie Festivals in Australia
Indie has a strong Australian following, led by Laneway's summer tour of the capitals and regional favourites like Yours & Owls in Wollongong and Sydney's Field Day. Expect homegrown talent alongside touring acts.
The season runs through the southern summer and autumn. Setline brings Australia's indie festivals together with full lineups, so you can discover bands, preview their music, and plan with friends.
