Secret Garden Festival Returns For Ninth Year In 2017

As usual, they'll reveal their line-up when it sells out

Time to get your forest imp and fairy costumes out — Secret Garden Festival has announced they'll be bringing the glitter and good times back in 2017.

The fancy dress festival, with a smorgasbord of forest parties, games, pop-up parties, art installations and — of course — music, will head to the secret festival site in Camden, NSW on Friday, 24 February and Saturday, 25 February next year.

As usual, the community-driven festival will only reveal their line-up once tickets have all sold-out as they do most years — a testament to punters' desire for the Secret Garden Festival experience rather than just the individual bands. Their line-ups in the past have included Gang Of Youths, Raury and many more. 

It's a unique, inclusive, camaraderie-filled musical extravaganza and Secret Garden's festival programmer Adam Lewis is adamant this is upheld — last year he set a brilliant example when he personally called out two punters dressed in blackface at the event. 

Secret Garden tickets will go on sale 9am on Thursday, 29 September.
