The UNIFY Gathering is returning in 2022 with an absolutely stacked lineup featuring 100% Australian acts. The festival will return to Tarwin Meadows for a massive weekend of heavy music and community.
All bases are covered on this year’s lineup, with local up and comers mixed in with some of the country’s biggest names. There’ll be everything from wholesome singalongs to mind-numbing breakdowns, and today’s announce is just the first lineup announce. There’ll be a second announcement down the line.
Hot off the back of their latest record, Everyone Loves You… Once You Leave, The Amity Affliction are set to take the stage at the 2022 edition of the gathering. With three gold-certified albums under their belt, countless national tours, and even performing the headline slot at the first-ever UNIFY Gathering back in 2015, it’s set to be a special set from the band.
Joining them on headlining duties will be Violent Soho, one of Australia’s most iconic rock bands. Currently five albums deep, the band’s discography, including their ripper, gold-certified third record Hungry Ghost, and their two #1 ARIA chart albums WACO and Everything Is A-OK, has established them as one of Australia’s most loved live acts.
Tickets to the gathering go on sale at 12PM AEST today via Ticketmaster. Those who sign up to the mailing list will be able to access tickets at 11AM AEST. Sign up here.
This year’s edition has a reduced capacity of just 7000, so don’t sleep on this one.
