Australia’s Good Things festival has announced the lineup for its 2025 edition, with the likes of Tool and Weezer topping the bill.
The touring rock, metal and punk festival will return to Australian capital cities later this year, with performances scheduled for Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane from Dec. 5-7.
Leading the charge this year are a pair of Los Angeles veterans, including prog-metal icons Tool, who return to the country for the first time since a headline tour in 2020; and alt-rock icons Weezer who last year celebrated the 30th anniversary of their self-titled debut, colloquially known as The Blue Album.
The festival is largely populated by U.S. acts this year, including the likes of Garbage, All Time Low, Machine Head, Knocked Loose, and the All-American Rejects, who make their return to Australia for the first time in 16 years.
Swedish hardcore outfit will return for their final dates in the country, while Make Them Suffer and a reunited Tonight Alive help shore up the local representation. James Reyne may be considered a slightly odd inclusion by the traditional crowd, with the former frontman of ARIA Hall of Famers Australian Crawl occupying the now-annual role of veteran Aussie act.
International outfits such as Bad Nerves, Dead Poet Society and Wargasm join the lineup for their debut shows in the country, while local acts such as Civic, Inertia, Windwaker and Yours Truly also make up the lower end of the bill.
The Good Things festival launched in Australia in 2018, arriving onto a scene which had been largely devoid of touring festivals catering to fans of heavier music since the demise of the Soundwave festival a few years earlier.
Since its debut edition, the festival has hosted local and international headliners such as The Offspring, Parkway Drive, Bring Me The Horizon, Korn, and more. In 2024, the festival was to host the final Australian shows of Canadian punk outfit Sum 41, though were forced to cancel following singer Deryck Whibley’s diagnosis of pneumonia.
