Yours and Owls Festival has announced the dates for next year’s main event.

The festival will be back in Wollongong City, Dharawal Country, on March 1st and 2nd, 2025.

This comes after last weekend’s 10th Birthday Pre-Party, which was held to adjust for the main event moving to early 2025 due to headliner availability.
