Harvest Rock Festival, returning to Adelaide this October for its third year, has postponed its lineup reveal but dropped a big hint: The Strokes will be joining the bill.
The festival posted a crowd photo with the caption, “We know you were expecting the Harvest Rock lineup today, so… is this it?” The image prominently features the words “Is This It,” referencing The Strokes’ debut album.
The full caption reads: “We know you were expecting the Harvest Rock lineup today, so, is this it? Not quite yet. It’s hard to explain, but the lineup is still coming. More soon.”
Fans are buzzing online, with one Instagram user saying, “I’m going to vomit, am I actually going to see The Strokes?” Another added, “Skinny jeans are back!!!”

Harvest Rock Festival is set for Saturday, 25th, and Sunday, 26th October at Rymill and King Rodney Parks.
The festival will feature two main music stages with both international and local artists, plus a third stage focused on comedy and culinary events. Adelaide alt-rock duo Teenage Joans have been announced as the first act, with the full lineup set to be revealed on Tuesday, August 12th.
Grammy-nominated Nashville artist Jelly Roll, who’s already in Australia to headline Strummingbird’s debut festival, could be a likely addition to the Harvest Rock lineup.
Last Harvest Rock lineups have included artists like Jack White, Crowded House, Jamiroquai, Beck, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Groove Armada, Sam Fender, Ocean Alley, and Tash Sultana.
South Australia’s Minister for Tourism, Zoe Bettison, said, “Held in 2022 and 2023, Harvest Rock has contributed a combined $34.5 million to the State’s economy. We continue to see the impact major events like this deliver to our economy, while reinforcing our State’s reputation as the ultimate destination for bucket-list events – whether you are a sports fan, art lover, foodie, or just enjoy a good festival.”
Festival Director of Harvest Rock, Ryan Sabet added, “We’re thrilled to see Harvest Rock return to its Adelaide home to deliver a festival that brings global stadium-sized artists to South Australia, while also championing the region’s world-class food, wine and culture for interstate guests. Harvest Rock not only drives tourism and benefits local businesses, but offers a unique festival experience for all ages across the local community and beyond.”
