Wildlands Festival has announced that its Adelaide edition “will be taking a break” this year, while its Brisbane and Perth editions will still go ahead.
In a statement to social media, the festival — run by Untitled Group, also behind Beyond The Valley, Ability Fest and Pitch — said that the decision was due to a ‘shifted landscape’.
“This isn’t a call we wanted to make, especially after three strong years in South Australia, but the landscape has shifted, and the viability of delivering the event at the standard we hold ourselves to simply isn’t possible this season,” the statement reads.
Wildlands Adelaide joins several other festivals taking a pause in 2025, including Splendour in the Grass, Groovin the Moo and Good Life, with many directly citing rising production and artist fee costs.
Spilt Milk also paused in 2024, but is coming back this December with a stacked line-up that’s seen its Ballarat, Gold Coast and Perth editions selling out months in advance.
Wildlands is a relatively fresh festival, first launching in 2019 in Brisbane before expanding to Perth and Adelaide in 2022. Last year’s line-up featured the likes of FISHER, Ice Spice, Marlon Hoffstadt, Lola Young, Royel Otis.
The festival was quick to assure punters that the Brisbane and Perth editions were set to be crackers, and that they would return to Adelaide in the future.
“We remain proud of what Wildlands has brought to Adelaide over the years,” the statement reads.
“It’s a city that’s too often overlooked when it comes to large-scale music events, and it meant a lot to us to deliver something ambitious and deserving of our fans. Thank you for showing up and backing it, we are forever grateful and we hope to return to Adelaide in the future.”
The statement also mentions that pre-sales for Wildlands Brisbane and Perth, as well as Beyond The Valley, will go on sale soon for the festival’s social media followers.
