BYRON BAY, NSW (CelebrityAccess) — Byron Bay Bluesfest, the long-running Australian music festival, announced that it will take its final bow in 2025.
In a statement announcing the decision, organizers said: Bluesfest Byron Bay, Australia’s premier and most awarded music festival in Australia ever, proudly announces that the 2025 edition will be its final curtain call. After 35 years of celebrating the very best in Blues, Roots music, and Beyond, the legendary institution that has brought the world’s greatest artists to Australia, plus a whole bunch of our own, will host its last festival on the legendary Byron Events Farm, just outside of Byron Bay, NSW, Australia.
As the final chapter in Bluesfest’s iconic legacy approaches, fans are urged to be part of history. The first of many artist announcements for the 2025 festival, which promises to feature a lineup worthy of this momentous occasion, will be unveiled in one week. This is the last chance to experience the magic, the music, and the memories that have made Bluesfest a beloved institution, and we are expecting many of our greatest artist, plus a bunch of first timers to join us in the celebration, with a first artist announcement imminent.
Founded in 1990 by Dan Doeppel and Kevin Oxford, the festival annually features a slate of blues and roots performers, including both homegrown Australian performers and touring international artists.
Since 1995, the festival has been orchestrated by Peter Noble, who became the exclusive owner of the event in 2008.
“To my Dear Bluesfest Family, and after more than 50 years in the music business, Bluesfest has been a labor of love, a celebration of music, community, and the resilient spirit of our fans. But after the 2025 festival, as much as it pains me to say this, it’s time to close this chapter. As I said earlier this year at Bluesfest 2024, next years festival will be our last.. To my dear Bluesfest family, I want to make it the most unforgettable experience yet. If you’ve been thinking about it, now is your last chance to experience our beloved festival,” Noble said, announcing the decision.
