Golden Plains Festival is held on the family property of one of the festival’s organisers, a farm complete with a Ferris wheel, an Ecoplex Cinema and the extremely popular Pink Flamingo Bar. With only one stage, so no timetable clashes, Golden Plains Festival is known primarily for its great music and great culture – the reason that we love the Melbourne music scene so much in the first place.

“There really isn’t anything else on the Victorian festival landscape to compare Meredith and Golden Plains to, such is the transient nature of the local festival scene,” we said about this year’s iteration.

“Nolsey’s Long Blink – this wonderful moment of respectful jubilation that sits nicely within an immersive Welcome to Country – really sets the tone for what makes this festival so utterly special. I wouldn’t even call it a big family, because every big family has at least a few dickheads. It’s what it is and unless you’ve experienced it for yourself, sorry, but you’re not gonna get it.

“From the relentless power of Earthless and the captivating riffs of the Andrew Gurriwiwi Band; to the indie sing-along stylings of Methyl Ethel (who would be proud to know, most of the people I spoke to picked him as their most exciting), Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever and who could forget, Angel Olsen.”
