Australian festival Beyond The Valley brought in the new year in Victoria with four days of music and art.

Putting on a show for over 35,000 attendees, the 9th edition of Beyond The Valley took place from Saturday 28 December-New Year’s Eve at Barunah Plains, Victoria. With 120 acts billed over three stages (the the Valley Stage, Dance Dome and Dr Dans), the festival spotlighted both homegrown and international talent across a range of genres, with a strong focus on dance music.

Highlights included Confidence Man, Tinashe, Horsegiirl, Avalon Emerson, KI/KI and Girls Don’t Sync on the Sunday, Ice Spice, Lola Young, Fish56Octagon, Royel Otis and Chloé Caillet on Monday, and Sugababes, Ghetts and Flowdan & Neffa-T on New Year’s Eve, with midnight sets from the likes of FISHER.

“To the incredible artists, performers, and creatives who brought our stages and grounds to life – your talent shaped this experience in ways words can’t fully capture,” said Filippo Palermo, Co-Founder & Managing Partner of the festival. Look back at the highlights in the photos below.
