This June, Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival returns to Manchester, Tennessee, and one of its headliners is none other than Australian DJ Dom Dolla.
Dom Dolla headlines the first of four days on Thursday, 12 June (alongside country music star Luke Combs); other headliners include Tyler, The Creator, John Summit, Glass Animals, Olivia Rodrigo, Avril Lavigne, Justice, Hozier, Vampire Weekend, and Queens Of The Stone Age.
Aside from the headliners, there’s plenty of variety throughout the undercard, with more Aussies listed on the festival bill. On Saturday, 14 June, Dope Lemon (the indie rock band led by Angus & Julia Stone’s Angus Stone) and Ziggy Alberts will perform, while Australia’s latest indie stars Royel Otis are on the second line below Hozier, Vampire Weekend, and Queens Of The Stone Age on Sunday, 15 June.
In addition to the acts mentioned above, the ever-prolific rockers King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard will also perform at the festival. They’ll appear as part of the “Roo Residency,” playing three sets over three days.
Tickets for this year’s Bonnaroo are on sale now – you can find more information on the Bonnaroo website. Check out the rest of the line-up below.
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have found their second home in the US, selling out amphitheatres as iconic as Red Rocks on multiple occasions. Last year, they released their 26th album, FLIGHT b741, which was nominated for the 2024 Australian Music Prize.

Dom Dolla recently wrapped up a mammoth Australian run that saw him sell out two nights at Sydney’s The Domain, Melbourne’s Flemington Racecourse, and Brisbane’s Riverstage, as well as one night at Perth’s Wellington Square.
In a review of his show at The Domain, The Music’s Jake Fitzpatrick wrote: “One of the things that stood out about Dom Dolla’s performance was his ability to stay focused and engaged with the crowd, regardless of the conditions. He never let the storm affect the vibe, always keeping his eyes on the crowd and delivering the kind of set they were there for: a solid mix of house, tech-house, and all-around feel-good energy.”
