It started with a few hundred people, some local bands and a stage made of hay bales. Fourteen festivals later, Party In The Paddock is Lutruwita/Tasmania’s largest multi-day camping festival: big touring acts, local legends and a crowd that looks after each other.
We’ve grown a lot, but the heart hasn’t changed. We’re still independent, still built by the community that keeps coming back, and still a place where everyone’s welcome. We look after the land we party on, and we celebrate culture, art and the people who make this place what it is. Good music, good people and a paddock full of good times.
Party In The Paddock is held at Quercus Park on tilapangka/Liffey River, in Lutruwita/Tasmania, on Palawa/Tasmanian Aboriginal land. We respectfully acknowledge all Aboriginal people, the Traditional Owners of the Country on which we work and celebrate, and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. We are proud to partner with Pulawini Aboriginal Corporation.
SOVEREIGNTY HAS NEVER BEEN CEDED.
No touching without consent. That goes for everyone, everywhere: the dance floor, the campground and everywhere in between. Harassment and assault will not be tolerated. We’ll remove anyone responsible and involve the police.
Arrive together, check in often and don’t leave anyone behind. If a mate isn’t doing well, bring them to First Aid or the Info Booth tent. Our medical team is there to help, no judgement.
With over 13,000 people sharing the Paddock each year, we have a huge responsibility to keep this working farmland pristine. It’s a beautiful home for both farm animals and native wildlife. We live in Tassie and it’s famous for its ‘leave no trace’ ethos, outdoors adventure way of life, epic scenery and picturesque wilderness.
As Tassie’s biggest festival, we’ve got a standard to uphold and we need your help!
