Australia's beloved Strawberry Fields Festival returns to Tocumwal for its 16th anniversary this November.
The independent festival has built a devoted following over its decade-and-a-half run, with early bird tickets selling out a full year in advance. Last year, 95 per cent of tickets were secured before any artists were announced, highlighting the event’s reputation for delivering exceptional experiences regardless of lineup reveals.
Strawberry Fields Festival will take place from 21-23 November 2025 on the banks of the Murray River, offering music lovers another weekend of electronic music, art installations and community connection. The festival has released its 15-year anniversary aftermovie to mark the occasion and generate excitement for the upcoming celebration.

Organisers have opened registration for the ticket ballot, with prospective festival-goers having until 30 June at 12pm AEDT to enter. The first round of ballot winners will be drawn on 1 July, giving successful applicants the opportunity to secure their spot at the riverside celebration.
The festival continues its commitment to accessibility through half-priced ticket programs for low-income applicants and First Nations people. This year, Strawberry Fields Festival has introduced a Pay the Rent donation option on all purchases, with funds supporting Still Here Arts & Culture, a Yorta Yorta owned organisation focused on cultural revival and language regeneration projects.
Beyond the music program featuring international and local DJs and live acts, the festival offers a comprehensive experience including interactive large-scale art installations, a dedicated performance stage with circus, dance and experimental theatre, workshops and talks program, wellness experiences including The Bush Spa and yoga, plus riverside camping among ancient red gums and native bushland.
Last year’s 15th anniversary edition showcased the festival’s impressive curation standards, featuring UK garage powerhouse DJ EZ, electronic producer KiNK, genre-spanning DJ Theo Parrish and rising talent TSHA. The diverse lineup also included Daddy G from Massive Attack, Afrobeat royalty Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, Pakistani jazz raga fusion quartet Jaubi, experimental African collective KOKOKO!, and Japanese electronic music composer Soichi Terada across multiple stages including the expanded Beach stage and reimagined Deep Jungle stage.
The festival takes place on Yorta Yorta woka (Country), with organisers deepening their relationship with the traditional land through cultural partnerships and direct community support. Registration for the Strawberry Fields Festival ticket ballot opens at strawberry-fields.com.au, with limited capacity ensuring another sell-out event.
