Back for a third straight year, Yonder Festival have taken the covers off their 2021 programme of music, performances and workshops.
To take place across three days (25-27 November) in the rolling hills of Sunshine Coast's Mary Valley in the heart of Gubbi Gubbi Country, Yonder espouse a culture of diversity, innovation, inclusion, and positivity."Most of this year's programme is made up of Queensland's own," Festival Director, Lincoln Savage says, "which really aligns with Yonder's ethos of supporting local talent and providing a platform for emerging artists.
"It also helps us mitigate some of the difficulties around interstate travel, which has been a big roadblock for festivals and gigs this year.
"That said, we are really excited to be welcoming King Stingray and Alter Boy from out-of-state. They're two of Australia's most compelling artists right now and we can't wait to bring them to a Queensland audience.
"We are also delighted to welcome a number of powerful First Nations and Indigenous artists to the festival and are appreciative of their involvement.
"Yonder is built on a balance of art forms and has a focus on those artists who are just starting to break out.
"We encourage people to attend Yonder not because of the artists they know, but those they don't – we hope Yonder provides an experience for people to find their new favourite acts."
Across four stages, punters will gather to witness local powerhouses like WAAX, Sahara Beck, and WIIGZ, the unique sounds of Linsey Pollak and DeepBlue Orchestra as well as all manner of party-makers who'll gather in Yonderland including Shandy, NO.ONE NETWORK, QUIVR and Pocketmoth.
Need a break from the dance floor? Yoga and meditation workshops will take care of minds, while workshops from NO.ONE NETWORK and Kitch will keep everyone up to speed with the festival rhythm.
Second release tickets are on sale.
Yonder Festival takes place in Mary Valley (Sunshine Coast) 25-27 November.
