Yours and Owls are delighted to welcome celebrated Australian singer and songwriter Brad Cox to the 2025 lineup. The ARIA-nominated, Golden Guitar-winning sensation from Jindabyne will grace you all with his booming voice and chart-toping country anthem presence.
Yours and Owls Festival will return beachside in 2025, taking over Wollongong Foreshore, South Beach, to deliver you a weekend to remember on March 1st and 2nd.
Unfortunately, we can’t access UOW due to our date change; in true Gong spirit, when life gives us lemons, we go out and make some big-ass pitchers of LEMONADE! Being closer to the CBD means better access to all that juicy CBD stuff that makes life a little easier. Direct transport routes, better connectivity, those beachside negative ions, walking distance to the accommodation if you are coming in from out of town, and, most importantly, a hop, skip, and jump to the after-parties!
It's a different venue, but the vibe's the same! Multiple stages, the best international and local artists, chill-out spaces, bars, food, and arts showcase all the best elements Wollongong and its surrounds have to offer!
A CBD site also allows us to work closer with our beloved local Gong businesses, so expect to see a lot on offer from your favourite local outlets in 2025.
There has been an unprecedented response to pre-sale on Tuesday morning. Tickets are on sale now; head to yoursandowlsfestival.com.au to reserve your spot alongside:
