The new era of alternative rock and punk in Australia is fast approaching, with NEW BLOOM FEST, a brand-new touring festival, set to launch next month.

Prepare to witness some of the freshest up-and-coming artists in the scene, with three full days and multiple headline sideshows lined up for NEW BLOOM FEST in 2024. But don't say we didn't warn you, limited tickets are left for Melbourne, with the Brisbane and Sydney events selling fast.

NEW BLOOM FEST’s inaugural events are set to be packed full of unforgettable moments, with American rockers CITIZEN, post-hardcore heroes MOVEMENTS, L.A. emotive hard-hitters TOUCHE AMORE and pop punk powerhouse NO PRESSURE all lined up to rattle the collective roofs in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, alongside alternative rockers FLESHWATER and grunge shoegaze duo SOFTCULT both performing as part of their debut Australian appearances. Also joining the sweltering international line-up will be an army of stellar local acts in each city to showcase the incredible might of the modern alternative scene at home and beyond.

And today, NEW BLOOM FEST is also announcing that hardcore punks AWOL will join the Melbourne edition as a replacement for Born Free. AWOL made their footprint in the Melbourne hardcore scene with their debut self-titled EP in 2021, which has led them to support the likes of The Story So Far, Speed and No Pressure, and most recently signed to Last Ride Records and Flag Spot Records for their debut full length Tear 'Em To Bits.

Add in some of the amazing sideshows on offer from NEW BLOOM FEST's international acts, and it's set to be a month-long celebration of all things alternative rock and punk this March!
