Music festivals in Melbourne: our summer guide

At long last, festival season is almost upon us. Melburnians live and breathe live music, so it's no surprise that when doof stick season rolls around, we flock to music festivals like moths to a flame.

When the weather begins to heat up, so do our line-ups, and we are spoiled for choice with a festival for every eardrum. There are big ones, small ones, ones by the beach, ones on the street, ones by a lake, ones full of rock'n'roll, electronic, jazz, techno, gospel, pop, reggae – you name it, we got it.

So, to help you make the most of these summer months, we've rounded up the best music festivals in Melbourne in the next few months. Peruse our list and get planning. 

Left feeling empty-pocketed after a festival? Check out some of Melbourne's best free activities.
