The Melbourne punk rock legends will be headlining the one-night-only event.

Since forming in 2008, the APRA award-winning three-piece dropped three critically acclaimed albums – Self-titled, Tales and Joy – and gained a significant following for their standout gigs and hits like Carol, Neuroplasticity and Big Fish.

They split up in 2017, but not before embarking on a sold-out tour across the country. Now, with much fanfare expected, the band will be returning to headline the ever-popular OK Motels festival, set to run from February 23 to 25 in the town of Charlton.

The Peep Tempel are joining a banger lineup, featuring The Slingers, Nice Biscuit, Watty Thompson, The Belair Lip Bombs, Polly and The Pockets, Comets, DJ’s Queenie and Brat Paisley. The feminist water ballet team The Clams will also be performing, taking to the pool to show off what they’ve got.

With a strong emphasis on fostering community and welcoming city slickers out to smaller towns in Victoria, OK Motels has become a highly anticipated and celebrated highlight on Victoria’s cultural calendar. Drive out to the country, hang out with a bunch of like-minded holidaymakers and jam out to some tunes in the sun.

Attendees can look forward to Friendship Bingo hosted by Tell Your Friends You Love Them, and OKs classics such as bevvies, new friendships, ice cream, Devonshire tea, mini golf, karaoke, car boot sales, artist markets, vintage stalls, barefoot bowls, big ol’ barbies and swimming pools for peak summer cool offs – all the ingredients for a bloody good time.
