NEW BLOOM FEST regrets to inform that due to the impending impact of Tropical Cyclone Alfred in Queensland and Northern New South Wales, the Brisbane leg of NEW BLOOM FEST will be cancelled. The safety and well-being of all of our attendees, bands and staff are of utmost priority, and ticket holders will be contacted directly via Ticketmaster regarding the cancellation and refunds. NEW BLOOM FEST will be going ahead as planned in Sydney on Sunday 9 March at Roundhouse and in Melbourne on Monday 10 March at The Timberyard.
Unfortunately also due to Tropical Cyclone Alfred, DRAIN‘s headline sideshow with ONE STEP CLOSER on the Sunshine Coast this Thursday 6 March will be cancelled, as well as SWEET PILL‘s headline sideshow in Brisbane on Friday 7 March. Ticket holders for these sideshows will be contacted directly from their point of purchase (Ticketmaster or Oztix) in the coming days regarding refunds. No further action will be required.
Tickets are still available for the Sydney and Melbourne events, so definitely don’t miss your chance to catch this incredible 2025 lineup celebrating all things alt rock, grunge, punk, hardcore and everything in between, with BASEMENT, BALANCE AND COMPOSURE, DRAIN, ONE STEP CLOSER, SWEET PILL and GLITTERER set to be joined by a stellar array of locals in Sydney and Melbourne this weekend.
Also adding to the NEW BLOOM festivities, BASEMENT are currently performing a run of headline sideshows, with BALANCE AND COMPOSURE set to be joined by GLITTERER for sideshows next week in Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne, DRAIN with ONE STEP CLOSER next week in Hobart, Wellington and Auckland, SWEET PILL next week in Melbourne and Adelaide, and a one-off headline sideshow for ONE STEP CLOSER in Melbourne next week.
Following its hugely successful inaugural year in 2024, including a sold out Melbourne event, NEW BLOOM FEST is back with a sweltering round two for 2025 in Sydney and Melbourne, bringing the golden age of DIY hardcore shows and all things alternative into a modern setting. With a low ticket warning for Melbourne, and tickets selling fast in Sydney, don’t delay securing your NEW BLOOM FEST experience in 2025!
We hope all of our Queensland and Northern NSW friends are able to stay safe, and we thank you for your understanding.
