Essence is Canberra's premier transgressive music event.
After 2024's infamous success, the decision to repeat the experience - bigger, better, and more sonically destructive - was straightforward.
The fest proper will be held over Saturday and Sunday. Friday night's pre-fest will be curated by Qld/NSW underground label Gutter Prince Cabal. (Monday 6 Oct is an ACT/NSW public holiday.) A full ticket to the festival will include entry to Fri, Sat, Sun - tickets for individual days will also be available.
