Forget the drum roll and simply let your eyes feast on this 'carefully curated' bumper crop that Falls will deliver to Lorne, Marion Bay, Byron Bay and Fremantle - then start planning your annual get-away with your mates and party crews.

Other major headliners include UK rockers Catfish And The Bottlemen, 'Riptide' singer Vance Joy, Scottish synth-pop masters Chvrches and Aussie hip hop royalty Hilltop Hoods.

Then there is the amazing appearance of '70s-'80s rock stalwarts Toto on the bill - you know, them of 'Africa' fame. The festival sing-alongs for these guys will be filled with epic feels. Can you sense goosebumps already?
