Tix go on sale next Tuesday!

Having gotten us amped with word that hip hop connoisseur/actor/singer Childish Gambino and — just this morning — London Grammar would be gracing the event this year, Falls Festival have unveiled their full 2016/17 line-up.

It's a smorgasbord of genres and festival favourites, along with a handful of internationals such as indie rockers Catfish & The Bottlemen, legendary DJ Grandmaster Flash, US punks Modern Baseball and Berlin dance pioneers Booka Shade.

Alongside The Avalanches making their Falls Fest debut this year, you'll also be able to catch the sultry tunes of Matt Corby, the rave-happy drops of Alison Wonderland, The Rubens and Grouplove (who were literally touring the country last week) rocking out and our Kiwi neighbours Broods and Fat Freddy's Drop.

As always, the 24th Falls Festival will have innovative market stalls, visual arts showcases, food trucks, bars and restaurants as well as A+ camping facilities and daily beach access.
