Slated for January 14 2023, Tracks Festival is courtesy of organiser Patrick O’Brien, the brains behind the Food Truck Festival and the popular Warrnambool Laneway Bar, a pop-up venue that provides locals quality nights of beers, good tunes and means to celebrate with friends.
Dubbed a day and night party, Tracks 2023 will be headed up by the likes of Melbourne’s discofied house producer Francis Inferno Orchestra; Melbourne producer, bandleader and synthesist Harvey Sutherland (live); UK music producer and DJ Hidden Spheres; and South Australian DJ and electronic music producer, best known for his disco re-edits, Late Night Tuff Guy, as well as supports from Carly Davidson, Elke A, Mothafunk, Raglan DJs and Tids. Drinks will be supplied from Laneway Bar and a slew of tasty food trucks will be on site.

O’Brien originally announced Tracks Festival back in 2021, but the event was forced to cancel just days out as the New Year’s COVID wave swept the state. But it’s take two for the festival, and things are looking good for the upcoming summer.
As reported by The Warrnambool Standard, O’Brien has been crafting the event for the better part of three years, looking to fill the gap in Warrnambool’s entertainment market, especially following the closure of iconic music venues like The Loft, Your Break, Lucy, and The Gallery, to name a few.
This is going to be a serious vibe for summer, especially with legends behind the Laneway Bar curating it.
Pre-sale tickets are on sale Wednesday, November 9 with general public tickets going on sale Thursday, November 10. Register for pre-sale here.
Tracks Festival is set to go down on January 14 2023 in Warrnambool. Keep up with the latest festival updates via socials here.
