Melbourne’s much-anticipated Australian Open is not just about top-tier tennis; it’s also a celebration of vibrant music. This January, the prestigious Finals Festival, crafted by the renowned Untitled Group, promises an exhilarating blend of music and sport. The lineup includes both global stars and homegrown talent, ensuring a lively atmosphere during the Australian Open finals weekend.

Kicking off on AO Pride Day, 25th January, the festival will see Australian pop sensation Peach PRC and AO Pride Ambassador Tash Sultana take the stage, along with the ‘Raingurl’ artist Yaeji, Djanaba, Anesu, and DJ Luv You. The excitement continues with the Women’s Final Day featuring DMA’S, The Jungle Giants, Ruel, Tia Gostelow, and DJ Mell Hall.
