Wanstock Returns In March 2025!

Next March, get set to celebrate all things full-blown rock’n’roll, with Aussie rock festival Wanstock returning for its biggest edition yet.

Set to take place across two dates in 2025 at the Shoppingtown Hotel in Doncaster, offering back-to-back nights of fun for fans and bands alike, Wanstock will kick off on Friday March 14 headlined by Australian rock royalty, Baby Animals, Taxiride ft Jason Singh and Straight Shooters, with Saturday March 15 headlined by British rock icons The Babys, Mi-Sex, Ted Mulry Gang, Standing Room Only and Day Dreamers.

Born from organiser Geoff Wansbrough’s love of the legendary Aussie pub rock era in the 80s and 90s, Wanstock has evolved since 2018 into an annual showcase of world-class acts alongside talented up-and-comers, with the 2025 edition once again bringing together an iconic array of homegrown and international artists from the rock realms.

Tickets for Wanstock 2025 are on-sale now from www.wanstock.com.au.

An event run by a music lover and for music lovers, the spark for Wanstock festival first ignited when organiser Geoff Wansbrough approached some of his favourite bands to play for his birthday a few years back.

Spurred by his love of classic Australian rock and the spirit of the original Woodstock Music Festival, Wanstock was soon born, holding its inaugural event in 2018 at the Burvale Hotel before growing into the event’s current home, the Shoppingtown Hotel, in 2019.

Featuring an array of incredible bands over the years, including Dragon, The Kevin Borich Express, Spectrum, Hush, The Black Sorrows, Baby Animals and more, Wanstock offers a true blue rock’n’roll experience while also showcasing some of the local scene’s brightest new talent.
