Having only just announced its 2022 dates last month, revealing that the renowned Springtime festival will once again be moving to Autumn, taking place on Saturday, April 2 and Sunday, April 3 next year,  Yours & Owls Festival are keeping up the hype, delivering a damn fine lineup featuring an a collection of the most extraordinary Oceanian live acts. 

Leading the lineup is Godfathers of Aussie hip hop Hilltop Hoods, indie-pop sensation BENEE, hip-hop giants Bliss n Eso, Australia’s favourite high-flyers, Jimmy Lyell and Hugo Gruzman, aka Flight FacilitiesBrisbane’s explosive high energy four-piece The Jungle Giants, loose-unit electronic act Peking Duk, Brisbane rockers Violent Soho and Sydney indie rock favourites Faker. 

The list of homegrown heroes doesn’t stop there. The festival will also see steamy sets from the likes of Harvey Sutherland, Jack River, Lastlings, Late Nite Tuff Guy, LDRU, Luca Brasi, Hiatus Kaiyote, Ruby Fields, San Cisco, Arno Faraji, Barkaa, Big Twisty & The Funknasty, Budjerah, The Bouys, Fergus James, Floodlights, Private Function, Surprise Chef, and Sycco, among many others.

Long recognised as a Spring festival, Yours & Owls took over Wollongong’s Dalton Park on Saturday, 17th and Sunday, 18th April 2021 with sophisticated dual revolving stage setup and a local-only lineup, going down as the first major music festival in Australia since the pandemic hit last year. Returning to its home by the sea at Stuart Park next year promising to be a bigger (larger site and more people) and better than ever, they’ve definitely come out swinging for the Autumn edition of the festival and we’re here for it.
