The smiles, the sunburn, the sky and the clouds. The strangers, the friends - both new found and old. That long drive into the unknown, followed by dancing, and inevitable laughter. Embarking on adventures through the ghost gums, discovering a bamboo playground, an oriental tea lounge, a jazz quintet improvising in a temple or a disco legend unleashing funk & soul from a treehouse. Afternoons of wild river swimming and those quite moments of reflection.

These are the things that will define the greatest weekend of your life.

Welcome to the wild world of Strawberry Fields.

** WILD RIVER SWIMMING ALL DAY LONG. The festival is set alongside the banks of the iconic Murray River, where you can cool off in the day time while kicking back to the lush beats of the Playa Del Murray Beach Haus.

** MUSIC ACROSS FOUR STAGES & MULTIPLE THEME CAMPS. A wide variety of genres are performed by over 100 international and local artists, from breakthrough house, disco & techno to live reggae, hip hop, soul, jazz, acoustic and classical.

** ART & PERFORMANCE PROGRAM INCLUDING INSTALLATIONS, GALLERY, WORKSHOPS & HEALING. The visual and immersive elements of Strawberry Fields are valued as highly as the music. Each year we invite a selection of the world's foremost visual artists and performers to dream up environments for you to explore.
