Between Saturday 26th March and Sunday 10th April, four editions of Torch Fest 2022 will be held in Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra and Brisbane.
Boasting huge lineups including Gretta Ray, Bec Sandridge, Charley, The Million, Austen and WILSN, the biggest addition comes to Torch Fest Sydney with 3 stages of music, a comedy stage and a courtyard full of mental health activations from Audio Technica, Hey Mate, JMC Academy, Mindarma and many more.
In addition to the expanded lineups, Yours and Owls have also teamed up with Listen Up Music to bring Torch Fest Canberra to Kambri.
All performers on the day will perform their Torch Song, the light that gets you through, as part of their full set and the festival will distribute battery-powered torches to each attendee to flick on when each of the Torch Songs are played throughout the day.
Ali Taylor, CEO of Listen Up Music, said: “After a year of planning, and then 2 years of cancellations, we're so excited to finally be able to bring the festival to Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra." (Torch Fest Brisbane debuted last year).
Ali continues: “The time for mere awareness-raising of mental health issues is something that we believe we need to move past. We want to see real, life-altering, change and we believe that music in this setting has the ability to make a big impact.”
"Expanding our lineups at all four editions of the festival just felt like the right thing to do, to give more artists paid opportunities to perform at a festival, some of them for the first time ever."
