TENS of thousands of people will dance their way west of Geelong to enjoy one of Australia’s premier multi-day music festivals later this year.<\/p>\n

Beyond the Valley will make its return to Barunah Plains from December 28 to January 1 for its 10th anniversary celebration.<\/p>\n

This year’s huge milestone promises to be one of the most exciting yet, with a huge lineup set to take to the stage on the festival’s three main stages.<\/p>\n

A reimagined Valley Stage has been designed in collaboration with UK-based creative studio Vision Factory, while a newly revamped Dance Dome and the return of the iconic Dr Dan’s are sure to turn some heads.<\/p>\n

A host of new experiences and activations will debut at Beyond The Valley this year.<\/p>\n

This will be led by The Lounge Room – a vibrant new space set to host everything from the festival’s beloved podcast programming to an evening cinema experience and more.<\/p>\n

POOF DOOF returns with Cirque Du Slay, bringing nightly DJ sets, drag performers and the legendary Yummy crew.<\/p>\n

Vanessa’s Place will also feature as part of the expanded on site experience with a dedicated chill zone as well as interactive games and activities, while The Palms Pool House will offer attendees a place to take a refresh.<\/p>\n

Filippo Palermo from event presenter Untitled Group said reaching Beyond the Valley’s 10th edition is something they’re incredibly proud of.<\/p>\n

“What started as an idea between a few mates has grown into one of Australia’s biggest and most unique events, welcoming tens of thousands each year from across the country and overseas.<\/p>\n

“This year we’ll be celebrating the music, art and community that has shaped the festival into an important piece of Australian culture.<\/p>\n

“Our team is excited to share the biggest and most innovative BTV production to date.”<\/p>\n
