After 17 years, Falls Festival will leave Tasmania and is also moving on from its Victorian location of almost three decades.
The annual three-day music festival held over the New Year's Eve period is leaving Marion Bay entirely and Lorne after 27 years, moving to Pennyroyal Plains at Murroon, 30 minutes from the original location.
In an announcement that the festival will return for the 2022/23 summer, organisers say they have made the location decisions with "mixed feelings".
"It has been a privilege to operate Falls in such beautiful locations," promoters Jessica Ducrou and Paul Piticco said.
"Thanks Surf Coast Shire, Sorell Council, supporting stakeholders and the community who have shown incredible support over the years. You've been instrumental in making Falls what it is today and we'll always be grateful to the community for your long-time support."
The line-ups are yet to be announced and the show will still go on at Byron Bay in NSW and Fremantle in Western Australia.
Last year's events fell victim to COVID-19 due to Victoria's second wave and international border restrictions.
