Year-in year-out the Falls Festival crew continue to deliver the goods, throwing some of the countries best New Years parties. However this year a few new changes are coming to Falls Fest.

After serving Falls well, this year the Falls ballot is taking a step back and moving into retirement. Fear not, the crew at Falls have given us a few options to snap up tickets early.

Optus Perks Pre-Sale gives Optus customer’s who have signed up first access to Falls 2016/2017 tickets with the pre-sale kicking in at 9am August 25th and 26th ahead of the general sale on August 30th through Oztix.

Returning this year is the Friends of Falls system, been to 3 or more Falls Festivals? Make sure you check out the application process on the Falls website before August 22nd.

In what will no doubt be something of a divisive move, this year East Coast Falls camping tickets will be separated out from the event tickets.

This means that if you plan on getting the full Falls Festival experience and camp on site you need to be sure to grab an extra camping ticket on your way to the check out. Marion Bay patrons need not worry, your camping ticket is included with your event pass.

The Falls Festival 2016/2017 lineup drops Tuesday August 23rd.
