Sampa the Great, Ben Lee & More Join Wanderer Festival Lineup

After successfully launching last year, the festival will head to NSW's Pambula Beach at the end of September

Wanderer Festival has announced the final additions to its 2023 lineup.

After successfully launching last year, the festival will head to NSW’s Pambula Beach from September 29th until October 1st.

Prominent US singer-songwriter Kevin Morby, Australian indie rock favourites The Jungle Giants, and alternative rock legends Spiderbait were part of the initial lineup announcement in April.

The following month, art pop artist Montaigne, perennial festival favourites Ocean Alley, and acclaimed Brisbane singer-songwriter Thelma Plum joined the bill.

If those acts weren’t enough to entice music fans, a slew of other impressive names have now been confirmed to be appearing at the festival this year.

Powerful Zambian rapper and singer Sampa the Great is heading to the Sapphire Coast, as is the evergreen Ben Lee, bringing hits from across his extensive 30-year career.

Rising punk rock band Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers will appear at the festival shortly after the release of their debut album, I Love You.

Batts, Cash Savage and the Last Drinks, WILSN, and Lonnie Holley are some of the other new names on the lineup. You can check out the full Wanderer lineup below.
