Meadow Music Festival, a staple in the Australian music scene, has announced an unexpected hiatus for the year 2024. In a statement released today, the organisers expressed the decision to take a break after nine successful editions. The festival, traditionally held in Bambra, Victoria, has become renowned for its eclectic lineup and vibrant atmosphere.

"After nine of the best, we’re taking one year for rest. Meadow won’t be running in March 2024. All signs suggest it’s the right time for a little break," the announcement read. This surprise decision comes as a departure from the festival's usual annual schedule.

The 2023 edition boasted an impressive lineup featuring artists like Black Midi, Kurt Vile & The Violators, Jen Cloher, and Ayebatonye. Meadow Music Festival has been a platform for both emerging and established artists, contributing significantly to the diversity of the Australian music landscape.

While no prior indications were given regarding the 2024 edition, fans and attendees are met with the news of the festival's temporary hiatus. The organisers assure patrons that this break aims to rejuvenate and ensure the festival's continued excellence in the years to come. Meadow Music Festival's absence in 2024 leaves a void in the calendar, but anticipation builds for its triumphant return in the future.
