Brunswick Music Festival is back in full force in 2025, presenting nine days of music programming including the return of Gilpin Park gigs.
Things kick off with the Sydney Road Street Party, followed by more than 40 gigs across nine days in Melbourne’s live music capital.
Two huge nights are scheduled among the trees of Gilpin Park, with dream team Miss Kaninna and Elsy Wameyo co-headlining, followed by hip hop royalty Bahamadia kicking off Saturday evening under the stars with Kaiit.
Free live music will grace a number of venues across the suburb with the return of Bulleke-bek Journey.
Then, for the first time, Brunswick Uniting Church will host the one-off AT THE ALTAR OF US. It’s an intimate showcase of queer talent starring Ruby Gill, Porpoise Spit, and Merpire.
Over at Brunswick Ballroom will be USA Americana trio Bonny Light Horseman, DanAnda and Firetail, while Pachyman brings his dub-drenched dispatches to Howler.
Jazz Lab, The Bergy Seltzer, Quad Club, Shell Space, Tempo Rubato, The Penny Black, Brunswick Mechanics Institute and Rubix will all be holding events as part of the festival.
“Brunswick Music Festival is one of Council’s flagship events that is so important to many in our vibrant, creative community,” Merri-bek City Council Mayor Helen Davidson says. “With a diverse programme showcasing both local and international talent, the festival strengthens Brunswick's reputation as a destination for live music, enriches our local community and attracts visitors.
“We are proud to be delivering Brunswick Music Festival for the 37th time in 2025 and encourage everyone to come along for nine days of wonderful live music.”
More artists and programming will be announced in early 2025.
Tickets are on sale now.
