When Pigs Fly NYE has unveiled its biggest lineup yet for 31 December.
The farm-based festival is bringing together an eclectic mix of artists from across the globe. Andrew Gurruwiwi Band will fly down from North East Arnhem Land with their infectious yolngu funk sound that blends traditional elements with contemporary grooves.
Genre-bending outfit Close Counters sits somewhere between house, neo-soul, broken beat and disco, while So.crates serves up 90s boom bap beats. Indonesian soul act Thee Marloes brings intercontinental vibes, and Wilson Tanner will provide ambient outdoor sounds perfect for those needing a breather between dance sets.

The DJ lineup spans continents and genres. Adriana brings her legendary SPASTA party energy, while Jamie 3:26 flies in from Chicago with pure house music. Egyptian-Australian moktar delivers his signature fusion sound, and Zjoso curates everything from street soul to Detroit techno. The festival has handed over complete control of two venues to local collectives.
Tribqu takes over The Barn with Zjoso leading broken beat and bass alongside FFan from Seoul’s Nyapi club, Pam Anantr from Bangkok, and Proto Exotica with their balearic selections. Meanwhile, Luna Blessings transforms The Farm Cafe with Marie Malarie from East London going back-to-back with DJ Luv You, plus DAWS, Jo Christy, Tina Disco, and O’Honey back-to-back with Elsie.
After presales sold out quickly and last year’s extensive waiting list, early bird tickets are now available. The 10-hour event runs by the Birrarung until sunrise, promising a unique farm-to-dancefloor experience where Chicago house meets Indonesian soul in an outdoor setting.
