Introducing Vintage Vibes, the brand-new two-day festival heading to Adelaide in April 2023! It's a two-day monolith that promises great music, food, drinks, and atmosphere in the picturesque Adelaide hills.

For its inaugural event, the festival will be headlined by Aussie superstars Gang Of Youths, Tash Sultana, Angus & Julia Stone, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, The Temper Trap and Hermitude. 

The line-up also includes beloved indie rockers and hip-hop stars alike, such as Middle Kids, George Alice, Jess Day, West Thebarton, Donny Benet, Leo Sayer, Adrian Eagle, Kanada The Loop, We Move Like Giants and Wanderers.

The pre-sale begins on Monday, 5 December - look here for access. General public tickets go on sale on Wednesday, 7 December. Tickets here.

Vintage Vibes Director Blake Gilchrist, who also curates music for Adelaide Festival, says that the new event will redefine the idea of a winery festival in South Australia. "I'm really excited to offer South Australia a world-class, multi-day festival in Vintage Vibes, not only with a truly amazing artistic line-up, but one that is set to accentuate the Adelaide Hills region," he shared.

Gilchrist added, "We have undoubtedly delivered a truly international standard line-up, consisting of nearly 100% Australian artists and over 50% South Australian. Where else can you see artists like Gang of Youth, Tash Sultana and Angus & Julia Stone play alongside hometown heroes Adrian Eagle, Wanderers, and We Move Like Giants.

"The Adelaide Hills has some of the most beautiful wineries and food producers alongside some of the most picturesque countryside in Australia, and we are excited to soon announce a complete food, drink and activation program as we cannot wait to showcase the best of the region."

South Australia’s Minister for Arts, Andrea Michaels, is proud to support Vintage Vibes. "Live music is an integral part of our state’s culture and has a significant impact on our well-being and economy, which is why I look forward to seeing a festival of this scale getting out of the city and heading to our world-renowned wine region," she said.

"It’s also fantastic to see a grant recipient from the South Australian Government’s $10 million See It LIVE package come to life, providing a platform for South Australian artists who make up a majority of the line-up."

"We’re committed to supporting the recovery of the live music industry in this state, and Vintage Vibes is one of many exciting events popping up on South Australia’s music calendar in 2023."
