Beyond the Valley back at Barunah Plains

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.

Beyond the Valley will make its return to Barunah Plains from December 28 to January 1 for its 10th anniversary celebration.

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.

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.

A host of new experiences and activations will debut at Beyond The Valley this year.

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.

POOF DOOF returns with Cirque Du Slay, bringing nightly DJ sets, drag performers and the legendary Yummy crew.

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.

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

“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.

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

“Our team is excited to share the biggest and most innovative BTV production to date.”
