Thornhill Surf's Up! Festival 2027

Following the overwhelming success of the first-ever artist-curated heavy music bill at the Riviera Beach Club in February, programmed by Polaris for the Life's A Beach edition, DESTROY ALL LINES are excited to announce a second installment for 2027. Headlined and curated by THORNHILL, the Riviera Beach Club will play home to SURF'S UP FESTIVAL on Saturday 20 February, complete with waves upon waves of stellar local and international acts.

A celebrated entertainment hub, hosting some of Melbourne's most in-demand DJ and electronic live music events, the Riviera Beach Club has become the city's secret summer party venue. Following the resounding acclaim of the Polaris-curated Life's A Beach event earlier this year, the Riviera Beach Club's reputation has since expanded to offer heavy music fans a chance to soak up some beachside breakdowns and surging riffs, surrounded by palm trees, sunshine and plenty of spectacular summer chaos.

Headlined and hand-picked by Australian heavy icons THORNHILL, SURF'S UP FESTIVAL in 2027 will also feature an array of some of the local scene's most exciting up-and-comers as well as some international heavy-hitters including STAND ATLANTIC, ALPHA WOLF, SACE6(USA), JUSTICE FOR THE DAMNED, VARIALS (USA), HEADWRECK, BLOOM and BLINDER.

"We’re bringing SURF'S UP! Festival to life. Personally curated by the 4 of us, we are stoked to be joined by some of the best names in Australian heavy music. Expect big riffs, good times and a whole lot of energy. Melbourne, we’ll see you in February!" - Thornhill

SURF'S UP FESTIVAL will be making waves next February, featuring THORNHILL as you've never seen them before. With a neck-snapping lineup and lashings of Melbourne beachside summer vibes on offer, don't miss the 2027 edition of what is quickly becoming one of the hottest events on the Australian heavy music calendar.
