Listen Out will not be returning in 2025, with organisers confirming the beloved festival is officially taking a break. In a heartfelt statement, they revealed the decision was not taken lightly, noting that “the last few years have been tough” and that the energy behind the festival needs a refresh. The announcement comes as a major shift for fans who’ve made Listen Out a staple of their spring calendar.

Instead of the traditional touring format, organisers have unveiled a new concept: ‘Listen Out Presents’. This reimagined venture promises one-off, carefully curated parties in unique venues across Australia throughout the year. Importantly, Perth fans have been reassured they won’t be left out, with events confirmed to hit the west coast too.

The move signals a desire to create more intimate, high-impact events while continuing to showcase some of the world’s best artists. While no specific lineups or dates have been revealed yet, fans can expect a blend of Listen Out’s signature energy with fresh, location-specific flair. This new chapter may mark the end of an era, but it's far from goodbye.

Organisers signed off with a promise: “We’re still here for the good times… just in a new way.” With more news to come, ‘Listen Out Presents’ is shaping up as one of 2025’s most intriguing new live music offerings.

‘Listen Out Presents’ will deliver exclusive parties around Australia, including Perth.

Listen Out has kicked off its 2025 festival campaign with a bold move—clearing its entire social media presence and teasing its return with cryptic messages and visuals. As of 12th June, all posts have vanished from the festival’s Instagram, replaced with a new bio urging fans to “SIGN UP FOR LISTEN OUT ’25 👀”.

To further fuel speculation, the festival shared a short Instagram Story clip featuring a payphone ringing and a sticker of the Brazilian flag, leading fans to wonder if international artists or a Brazilian theme might be part of this year’s plans. A sign-up link was also included, suggesting that official announcements may be just around the corner.

Last year’s Listen Out took place across September and October, delivering major Australian debuts from global names like 21 Savage, Teezo Touchdown and Jessie Reyez, alongside local and international favourites including John Summit, Skepta and The Blessed Madonna. The 2024 edition marked a confident return amid a challenging time for the local festival scene.

Now, with its social media reset and teaser campaign in motion, excitement is building for what Listen Out has planned for 2025. The cryptic rollout hints at another high-profile edition, with fans eagerly awaiting dates, venues and the all-important lineup reveal.

Listen Out has announced the set times for its highly anticipated 2024 festival, offering fans a detailed schedule for the vibrant lineup of performances across Australia and New Zealand. The festival, known for its eclectic mix of hip-hop, electronic, and pop music, is set to bring a stellar roster of artists to six major cities.

The festival kicks off in Melbourne at Catani Gardens on September 27, followed by Perth’s HBF Arena on September 28. Auckland will host the festival at Go Media Stadium Mt Smart on October 4, with Sydney’s Centennial Park and Brisbane Showgrounds both welcoming Listen Out on October 6 and October 5, respectively. Adelaide will wrap up the festival at Ellis Park on September 29.

This year’s lineup features an exciting array of talent, including 21 Savage, Skepta, Lil Tjay, and Jessie Reyez. Fans can also look forward to performances from Tyla, Flo Milli, and Teezo Touchdown. The festival will offer a diverse musical experience with acts such as John Summit, Disco Lines, and Sub Focus (Evolve), among others.
