Laneway Festival releases 2025 dates and venues

Registration for presale is now open for the annual juggernaut festival, Laneway Festival.

Our favourite Trans Tasman touring festival, Laneway Festival is marking its return today with confirmation of dates, cities and venues for their 2025 dates.

Following a huge 2024 which saw the festival bring out Stormzy, Steve Lacy and Dominic Fike, in addition to AJ Tracey, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Raye, Dope Lemon and Confidence Man, 202 is set to be huge as it returns to six capital cities across Australia and New Zealand.
