Unify Gathering was an annual Australian music festival held in South Gippsland, Victoria, featuring artists of various genres including rock, metal, and punk. The festival has been discontinued since 2023.[1]
History
[edit]Originally started in 2015 as a two-day music and camping festival, the event expanded to three days in 2017; with attendance increasing from 3,000 in 2015[2] to 5,000 in 2016, and 7,500 for 2017 and 2018.[3] In 2019, the festival moved to a new location in Tarwin Meadows, a short distance away from the previous site at the Tarwin Lower Recreation Reserve.[4] After being forced to cancel the 2021 instalment due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[5] the festival returned in 2022 with an all-Australian lineup. It did not take place in 2023, and was instead replaced by a series of mini-festivals titled Unify Off The Record held in Mackay, Adelaide, Wollongong, Hobart and Frankston from May to June.[6]
