More about the festival

Simon Daly founded the Falls Festival as Rock The Falls Festival in 1993. Daly was determined from the start to make Falls and his fellow festival contributions Lost Lands pillars of festival organization and sustainability. Since then, the festival has become one of Australia's best-known music and art festivals.

This year's Falls will be the first in nearly two decades without a Tasmanian event. All Falls events were canceled in the last two years due to pandemic-related restrictions, however prior to that, the festival had been held in Tasmania for 17 years.
