Here are the Playing Times for Meredith Music Festival 2023

Meredith Music Festival is happening from Friday, 8th to Sunday, 10th December 2023 at the Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre, just outside of the small Victorian town of Meredith. West German techno-pop pioneers Kraftwerk lead the lineup, alongside pop aesthete Caroline Polachek, indie rockers Alvvays, veteran grime MC Flowdan and shamanic dance duo Eris Drew & Octo Octa.

There are plenty of locals on the bill too, including rhythm and soul band 30/70, singer-songwriter Hannah Cameron, noughties club favourites Sneaky Sound System, plus Bumpy, dameeeela, Floodlights, Telenova, Miss Kaninna and Gut Health. Read our review of Meredith 2022 here.

Gut Health – ‘Juvenile Retention’

As ever, all of the performances are happening on one stage, with a DJ booth to its left for sounds in between sets. The stage will run from 3:15 PM Friday until 4 AM Saturday; 10 AM Saturday until 7 AM Sunday; and 10 AM until 3 PM on Sunday.

The festival gates open at 8 AM on Friday, 8th December and everyone must be off the festival grounds by 4:30 PM on Sunday, 10th December. It’s a camping festival and the campgrounds are contiguous to the amphitheatre. Each ticket comes with two nights camping included.

The Meredith Gift is a nude or partially clothed footrace that happens at 2 PM on the Sunday. Comedian Zoë Coombs Marr is the MC for this year’s Gift. Find all the playing times below.
