Making a return for its sixth year, Nest Fest has announced the first artists heading to Hawke’s Bay next year.
Taking place on Tomoana Showgrounds on the weekend of January 5th-6th, Nest Fest promises to be one for people interested in seeing a carefully curated showcase of musicianship and performance that covers all bases genre wise.
And the initial lineup is stacked. Genesis Owusu, Katchafire, Barry Can’t Swim, The Exponents, LEISURE, Ladi6 are some of the highlights, with lots of other acts still to be announced.
Seeing Genesis Owusu perform is a must-see experience in itself – one of the biggest current stars in Australia, he dropped his album of the year contender, STRUGGLER, in August.
Nest Fest has also confirmed that PROMISELAND will perform, who notably recently toured with The Strokes during their trip to Asia. You can check out the full Nest Fest lineup so far below.
It’s the second time Nest Fest will be hosted at the scenic Tomoana Showgrounds. Tickets are available to the festival now via the official website. Nest Fest offers a camping experience for the weekend – they have pre-pitched camp options or attendees can bring their own setup.
