Golden Plains Announce 11th Fest Will Feature Neil Finn, Under A Full Moon No Less

Staff Writer

Sounds like a recipe for success, TBH

More Neil Finn Neil Finn

Meredith's sibling festival Golden Plains have announced that their 11th iteration next March will be truly magical, featuring one of our most beloved songwriters, Neil Finn.

Finn and Crowded House have been busy this year as they celebrate 20 years since their famous Farewell To The World concerts, as well as 30 years since their inception and very first ARIA Award. It seems next year's Golden Plains will be no different, as he returns to The Sup' after nearly seven years. 

What's more — next year's festival, slated in for March 11 to 13, will be held under a glistening full moon. Just imagine singing with hundreds of others to Don't Dream It's Over, Weather With You, Into Temptation and more. Shivers? Us too.

Golden Plains punters will also enjoy a new campground next year, a fresh selection of food and a new sound system. The ballot is now open until 17 October — get in here.
