Good Things Festival Reveals Debut Line-up

After teasing a few acts in the last week, the full line-up for Good Things Festival's debut is finally here. 

Leading the inaugural bill, heading around Australia's east coast this December, are US heavyweights The Offspring, playing their iconic 1994 album Smash in full, and the Corey Taylor-fronted Stone Sour who toured the country last year in support of their latest LP, Hydrograd. 

Also confirmed are All Time Low, Bullet For My Valentine, The Used, BABYMETAL, Dashboard Confessional, Dropkick Murphys, Mayday Parade, The Smith Street Band, Tonight Alive, Northlane and WAAX, just to name a few. 

Good Things is on this weekend – get your tickets here! 

Check out the full line-up below.

Speaking to The Music following the announcement, The Offspring guitarist Noodles said the band can't wait to get back to Australia after five long years. 

"That's way too long. We're looking forward to getting back," he said. 

While The Offspring have a huge following Down Under, the set will be made even more special by the fact that Australia is one of few countries where Smash reached #1 on the Albums chart. 

"I remember when it was happening," Noodles said.

"I remember our first time going to Australia... and it was just incredible the reaction we were getting.

"And I think a lot of that had to do with Epitaph putting our songs in surf videos and also snowboard and skating videos and that was kind of the crowd.

"Before that, it was just punk rock bands and we didn't think we'd have any fans in Australia, it's so far away. And we showed up and it was incredible."

General public tickets go on sale from 9am on Thursday 30 August; for more details, head over to theGuide or check out the Good Things website to register for pre-sale tickets.
