Dust off your doof stick and strap on your fanny pack because Lost Paradise has just announced the line-up for its hotly anticipated 2023 season. Getting one up on other New Year’s festivals, this whopping four-day fiasco is set to shake up Glenworth Valley (just an hour north of Sydney) from December 28 to January 1.
Certified superstar Kelis will bring all the boys to the yard as one of this summer’s headline acts, alongside Australia’s electronic golden boy Flume and rave king Dom Dolla. They'll share the stage with a stacked agenda of internationally renowned artists and local favourites including Lime Cordiale, Pnau, Foals, Bicep, Channel Tres, Jayda G and loads more.
Sure, Lost Paradise is another camping festival, but it’s taken great lengths to provide more than just a (killer) line-up of music with a packed program of talks, workshops and spiritual and wellness experiences. There’s a Hawkesbury River-connected stream to cool off in and a small forest of hammocks for swinging in the breeze.
This year, the cheapest tickets to the spiritual-tinged fest will be released on a first come, first served basis (as opposed to Lost Paradise's traditional first/second/third release format). You’ll want to get in quick as prices will gently rise as demand increases. Pre-sale tickets will be released at 10am on August 29 and you can sign-up here.
