Electronic Music Icons Headline Inaugural Nowhere Festival on Sydney's Cockatoo Island

The Nowhere Festival has announced an electrifying lineup for its debut edition, set to take place on Sydney’s Cockatoo Island from February 8-9, 2025. This innovative new festival promises an immersive weekend of music, art, and human connection across one of Australia’s most iconic waterfront locations. Featuring over 50 international and Australian DJs and live acts, the lineup includes globally celebrated names in house, techno, and electronic music, such as Detroit legends Carl Craig and Moodymann, performing a rare back-to-back set, alongside Berlin’s Marcel Dettmann and Italy’s Adiel.

The festival will span four stages, transforming the island’s unique spaces, including the industrial Turbine Hall, into surreal musical experiences. Australian promoter Jody Coker, known for producing some of the world’s best parties, leads this ambitious new venture, with plans to expand future editions to the UK, Dubai, and Barcelona. Local legends like Adi Toohey, Mad Racket DJs, and Danny Williams are also set to bring Sydney’s sound to life with renowned international acts such as DJ Lag, Paul Woolford, and Tama Sumo & Lakuti.

Tickets go on sale on November 5, with camping options available on the island’s award-winning urban campground. The Nowhere Festival promises an unforgettable experience, pushing boundaries of artistic expression amid Sydney’s stunning harbor views.
