Micro festival, macro heart: Groove Tunes, the Melbourne accessibility-focused festival for everyone, is back.
The 2025 edition of Groove Tunes, once again taking place at Melbourne’s iconic Corner Hotel, marks four years of celebrating live music, community, and inclusion, bringing unforgettable performances to everyone – no matter their access needs.
Groove Tunes launched in 2022. Since, it has become a trailblazing blueprint for how all live music events should look and feel – a space where absolutely everyone can enjoy the energy of a live gig.
“When I first created Groove Tunes, I wanted to prove that accessibility and live music don’t just coexist, they amplify each other. Four years on, it’s incredible to see how this festival has grown into a community that celebrates music, connection and inclusion,” Groove Tunes creator Dina Bassile says. “Groove Tunes is living proof that when everyone can be part of the experience, the energy in the room is unlike anything else.”
Dina is a passionate advocate for inclusivity and accessibility in the music industry. As a person who uses a wheelchair, Dina has first-hand experience of the gaps in accessibility within the Australian music scene. As a response to this, Dina founded Tibi Access to help open up gigs and events of all sizes, to everyone. This led to the launch of Groove Tunes.
Playing at the year’s event is rising R&B artist Dean Brady, who will bring his powerhouse vocals and live show to the stage. His forthcoming mixtape ‘Dean’s Home’ is a groove-soaked journey through love and self-discovery.
Next up are Australian collective Velvet Bloom, blending soul, pop, funk, folk, and indie. . . To create their unique sound. Fronted by Maddy Herbert, the band combines expressive guitars, atmospheric keys, and dynamic percussion.
Perth’s Dani Enli is shaking up modern pop with her fearless fusion of Jersey Club, R&B and trap. She’s self-produced, self-written, and a skilled dancer, with viral hits like ‘till the end of time’ and ‘I LIKE YOU’, each with millions of organic views on Instagram.
Bel Kil create a magnetic blend of indie-pop. They mix sharp songwriting and raw emotion, with lush production and vocals. The EPs ‘My Year’ and ‘Wasted Emotion’ have earned Spotify playlisting, spins on Triple J Unearthed, Rage, and more.
Tickets are on sale now.
Groove Tunes is on at The Corner Hotel (Melbourne) 29 November.
