Good Things Festival tickets are already on sale via Oztix – currently, Tixel isn’t available for resale, but the festival has partnered with Twickets for the same thing (and prices can only be at face value, with no variations).
Good Things Festival Set Times

Here’s the full set time rundown:



Good Things Festival Dates And Locations
The festival has confirmed the dates as follows as of July 29, including a new Sydney venue:
- Fri 5 Dec – Flemington Racecourse, Melbourne
- Sat 6 Dec – Sydney Showground, Sydney
- Sun 7 Dec – Brisbane Showgrounds, Brisbane
In the statement announcing this year’s dates, Good Things also wanted to highlight that 2025’s rendition will provide a better experience for punters making the trek:
“For Sydney, 2025 will see the experience levelled up across the board. The Sydney Showground venue offers larger capacity, enhanced shelter and facilities, and greatly improved accessibility for all patrons. The venue also provides better transport options with integrated services, making your journey to and from Good Things Festival much easier—so you can focus on what matters most: the music.”
