Good Things Festival: A Banging Alternative Music Festival In Australia

Australia’s brand spankin’ new alternative music festival has got fans all over freaking out from anticipation. And for good reason: The Good Things Festival, though a newcomer in the Aussie festival circuit, has managed to whip up only the most legendary, award-winning acts in alt music.

If you need reason to understand why The Good Things Festival has managed to send ripples to music fans all over, let the behemoth acts speak for themselves. The Offspring, one of the world’s biggest punk rock bands, have performed more than 1,100 shows all over the world. While The Offspring are no stranger to the stages of Australia, They will be playing the whole SMASH Album with tunes such as Gotta Get Away, Bad Habit, Self-Esteem, and Come Out And Play.

Stone Sour is recognized for their insane live performances at tours and festivals all over the world. Their singles Inhale and Get Inside have been nominated Best Metal Performance during the Grammy Awards, and yet they continue to slay it with chart-topping rock hits.

All Time Low has released seven albums, and they’ve managed to earn five Top 10 debut spots on the world-famous Billboard Top 200 charts. They’ve also earned no less than 5 Alternative Press Music Awards, won Best Pop Punk Band during the Top In Rock Awards, and no less than 5 more KERRANG! Awards along the way. Dropkick Murphys are just as big as they were two decades ago. With more than 6 million albums sold worldwide, they still know how to rock it out and will do so at the festival for your delight. Dashboard Confessional will also be making an appearance, performing an exclusive set from their album, The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most; plus other popular favorites. Other phenomenal highlights include Bullet For My Valentine, The Used, Babymetal, Mayday Parade, Northlane, Waterparks, Palaye Royale, Boston Manor, The Wonder Years, La Dispute, Void of Vision, and Waax.
