In a few short weeks, Australia is set to play home once again to the freshest up-and-coming artists in the realms of alt rock, post-hardcore, shoegaze, grunge, punk and beyond, with NEW BLOOM FEST once again primed to bring the golden age of DIY hardcore shows and all things alternative into a modern setting.
Following its hugely successful inaugural year in 2024, including a sold out Melbourne event, NEW BLOOM FEST is back with a sweltering round two for 2025 in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, headlined by British brooding rock heroes BASEMENT, and joined by hypnotic American icons BALANCE AND COMPOSURE, California hardcore punks DRAIN, melodic indie heavy hitters ONE STEP CLOSER, innovative emo mavericks SWEET PILL, and Washington post-hardcore bohemians GLITTERER. The second edition of NEW BLOOM FEST will also mark the debut Aussie performances of both SWEET PILL and GLITTERER, with a stacked array of Australian talent also locked in for each festival event.
And to help you start planning your NEW BLOOM FEST adventures, the official NEW BLOOM FEST timetables are here!
