The Dare

Dance punk, new rave artist The Dare returns to Australia.

Part of the indie sleaze revival, the 'Girls' hitmaker will bring his legendary freakquencies club nights to Melbourne and Sydney next month, alongside appearances at Laneway Festival.

A real IYKYK event that helped bring The Dare's nouveau-bloghouse sound from New York City to the world.

However, it's not just Harrison (The Dare) spinning tunes at freakquencies. The Dare always invites some famous friends along for the ride.  These exclusive parties in Melbourne and Sydney will be no different.

On both nights The Dare will be joined behind the decks by indie darlings Wet Leg and your favourite new band Geese, playing bangers until the lights come on.

2025 saw the multi-hyphenate play sets to record crowds at Coachella and Primavera as well as releasing the sonic counterpoint to his party of the same name, 'Freakquencies: Vol 1.'.

The Dare has also shared stages and collaborated with the likes of Charli XCX ('Guess'), Billie Eilish, Pinkpantheress, Tame Impala and a host of others.

Tickets on sale from 12pm (local time) on 23 January.
