Beyond The Valley returns for its 11th year after epic sellout
Pack the tent early: Beyond The Valley is back for year 11, heading to Barunah Plains from 28 December to 1 January.
The multi-day festival sold out its landmark 10th anniversary edition in under an hour last time round, and now Beyond The Valley is kicking off a whole new decade on the Barunah Plains.
Presented by Untitled Group and triple j, the festival has become one of the country’s most iconic summer traditions, pulling tens of thousands of music lovers in from across Australia and further afield for a few days of music, community and general chaos.
To launch the new era, the team has dropped a campaign called Fortune Favours The Curious, dropping fans into a fictional world known as the B. TV Network. At the centre of it is Beyond The Briefcase, an online game show pulling inspiration from Deal or No Deal and Family Feud, where two teams battle it out for a coveted BTV briefcase.
A snippet of Dutch artist KI/KI’s track “What’s a Girl to Do in ’25” plays over the final frames as the first taste of what’s to come, and fans can sign up now for presale access and a shot at playing the game themselves.

The festival’s three main stages are all returning, with the Valley Stage set for its biggest lineup yet, spanning huge headliners through to breakthrough acts.
The Dance Dome stays on as a BTV cultural staple, while Dr Dan’s continues to mix headline sets, homegrown talent and a few surprises nobody sees coming.
There’s plenty of new territory to explore across the site too. The Woods, a brand-new hidden camping area, joins the map for the first time, Bunnings makes its now-expected return, and Salomon is expanding its Run Club with Base Camp, a fresh hub for recovery between big nights.
Old favourites are sticking around as well. The Lounge Room brings workshops, chats and The Daily Aus’s podcast programming to Main Street, POOF DOOF returns with Cirque Du Slay, and the Palms Pool House and The Sanctuary offer a spot to cool off and reset.
Jack Daniel’s House Party, Red Bull Unforeseen and Smirnoff Schmall Klub are all back too, each promising a new twist. The members-only Valley Club returns between the Valley Stage and Dance Dome, with a beauty bar, cabanas, badminton and its own DJ sets.
Accommodation spans General and Premium camping, Pre-Pitched tents and Lux Camp packages, while a new all-in-one ARRIVAL travel package covers a pre-party night, transport, camping and Valley Club access starting from Melbourne. Off-site options through Geelong and Ballarat hotels are also available with daily transfers.
Beyond The Valley has previously hosted Tyler, The Creator, Peggy Gou, Central Cee, RÜFÜS DU SOL, FISHER, Nelly Furtado, Dom Dolla, Ice Spice, KAYTRANADA, Turnstile, Kid Cudi and Addison Rae, and its 11th year is shaping up to be its biggest yet.
