The final additions for Meredith Music Festival 2023 have been announced. The live entertainment roster has gained rhythm and soul band 30/70, singer-songwriter Hannah Cameron, synth-driven post-punk outfit Dragnet and songwriter and improviser Andrew Tuttle. Comedian Zoë Coombs Marr will MC the Meredith Gift, the festival’s Sunday afternoon nude footrace.
A bunch of DJs have been added to the program, with the likes of DJ Earl Grey, Mothafunk, Lloyd Briggs and Clara to seize the decks in between performances on the main stage. Meredith Music Festival is happening from Friday, 8th to Sunday, 10th December at the Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre, roughly halfway between Geelong and Ballarat.
