Party in the Paddock just got a hell of a lot bigger with the addition of a stack of new artists to the 2025 lineup.
The Kooks, who were revealed as the secret headliner a week ago, will be joined by indie-pop sensation Oliver Tree, WA psych-rockers Pond, Aussie favourite Nina Las Vegas and UK party starter Kha-Lo.
If that’s not enough to convince you to grab a ticket, the updated lineup also includes Brizzy dance quartet Dizzy Days, rock and rollers Rabbit the Band, punk misfits Exiles and DJ sets from Kito and Foura. Fans can also expect rollicking performances from The Dolly Parton Experience, Molly O’Brien, Flow Kobra, Rã Bellatrix, Sasquin, Hunks, Oscar O’Shea Trio, Cody Cooper, Funeral Jeans, Hunks and the triple j Unearthed winner, who will be announced next year.
The addition of these new artists makes the 12th edition of Tassie’s Party in the Paddock one of the best festival lineups we’ve seen in a while. The bill also includes acclaimed Aussie songstress Angie McMahon, indie singer Role Model, alt-pop favs The Rubens, singer-songwriter Thelma Plum and explosive punk rock act Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers.
Held at Quercus Park, just a short drive from Launceston, Party in the Paddock takes place from Thursday, February 6 to Sunday, February 9, 2025.
Tickets are on sale now via the Party in the Paddock website.
