Get ready to leave those chilly temperatures and pouring rain behind – Strawberry Fields has given us all something warmer to look forward to this Spring!
The festival has added an exciting array of 30 more artists – including London’s soulful house DJ Shy One, jazz aficionados Claps and kings of b2b2b Sky High Trio – along with a series of stage takeovers to its already jam-packed line-up.
Revellers will again be able to boogie waist-deep in the cooling waters of the Murray at riverside stalwart The Beach with a weekend long takeover curated by cult Melbourne radio station PBS FM. Featuring some of PBS FM’s most loved DJs (Ella Stoeckli, Firas, Friday Young, Lloyd Briggs, Mike Guerrieri B2B Shio Otani, Milo Eastwood, Mz Rizk, Zepherin Saint), fans can also anticipate what will surely be an iconic sunset DJ set from Massive Attack’s Daddy G.
Fan favourite Deep Jungle takes on an exciting new riverside location and will see a former ordinary school-bus converted into a multi level neon rave paradise. Saturday’s program is presented by Resident Advisor, with deep cuts of techno, house and all shades in between delivered by Sassy J, DJ Python, Roza Terenzi, EFFY, Claire Morgan, DJ PGZ, Merve, Hyper Binary, SOJU Gang, Millú and Pjenné.
Major dance arena The Wildlands will see a dramatic facelift with a canopy of tropical themed umbrellas and unique quadraphonic sound system. Geelong wunderkinds UNO Events will also present a special Wildlands themed showcase featuring Dean Turnley, Elliott Creed and Marli.
If it wasn’t lush enough already, Strawberry’s signature Bush Spa will expand to cater to more patrons with new mineral baths, a Turkish “hammam” steam room, herbal acupuncture and ice bath workshops. A luxurious bedouin lounge – The Mirage Motel – will host nightly Moroccan tea service as well as a series of secret pop up jam sessions from some of the festival lineup.
October will also see the introduction of new lifestyle and wellness hub The Village including two new feature structures – The Shala (a dedicated space for yoga, movement & craft workshops) and The Pavilion (a natural amphitheatre hosting speakers, panel talks and performance).
After revealing an 81% reduction in waste at the most recent Mar/Apr shows, the festival has also reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability with multiple initiatives including a Permaculture Course where patrons will help design and construct bushfood gardens on site. Fully powered by biodiesel, the October show will also feature 100% composting toilets, 100% carbon offset of all transport and an impressive reusable crockery system that has avoided over 100,000 single use items going to landfill since 2019.
Strawberry Fields continues to provide a valuable injection of cash and culture into regional economies. Over $35,000 in grants have recently been awarded to local community groups including the Tocumwal RFS, Barooga Public School, Berrigan CWA and more. The festival has also shared an independent economic impact assessment of the most recent Mar/Apr events showing a contribution of $3.3m to the Berrigan Shire economy and $6.7m in the greater Border region.
Final release tickets are on sale now via Humanitix.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
