Official press release below
=====================
GOOD THINGS FESTIVAL
IS ALMOST HERE
STAND ATLANTIC + ALPHA WOLF JOIN THE 2025 LINE UP
The Good Things Festival is just days away, and the excitement is building as we count down with you.
Life can be unpredictable, and moments like these remind us just how important it is to come together, support one another, and cherish the experiences that connect us. Good Things Festival isn’t just about music, it's about community. Over the years, you’ve become like family to us.
We rally together in the highs and stand together through the challenges, and this moment is no different, as unfortunately, we would like to share an important update that due to family emergencies The All-American Rejects and Knocked Loose will no longer be able to perform.
“We’re heartbroken to share that due to a sudden family loss, we won’t be able to make it to Australia as planned. This has been an incredibly difficult moment for us, and as much as it devastates us to miss such a great opportunity to reconnect with our Australian fans, family has to come first.
Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and all the love you continue to give this band. We’ll make it up to you as soon as we’re able.” - The All American Rejects
“We’re very sorry to everyone but we have to cancel our Australia trip, including the Good Things Festival and our headline shows around it.
Anyone familiar with this band knows we do not take cancelling shows lightly; but family will always come first. We are already planning our return and cannot wait to be back as soon as possible. Love you all.” - Knocked Loose
Critically acclaimed and resoundingly adored, Sydney’s Stand Atlantic and Aussie metalcore behemoths Alpha Wolf will join the line up.
Due to the extensive logistics involved with trucking, flights, accommodation, and stage production for these bands across three days, we’re unable to adjust the timetable. As a result, the newly added bands will fill the existing schedule slots.
“Our hearts are with The All-American Rejects - it's never an easy decision to make no matter what the circumstances are. We are honoured, nervous, and ready to show up and do what we do best.” - Stand Atlantic
“Unfortunately, our friends in Knocked Loose are unable to play the Good Things Festival, we’re sending them all our love and we’re going to try our best to fill their shoes on super short notice. Catch us on the Main Stage at 3:30pm in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this weekend!” - Alpha Wolf
Our thoughts are with the band and their families during this time. We want to also acknowledge our fellow artists and colleagues who feel this absence alongside us.
While life can throw unexpected hurdles our way, the show will go on, and this weekend, we’ll come together as one community to create a great experience.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support. We look forward to delivering an unforgettable experience for you all.
