Listen Out Melbourne: From Noises in Your Headphones to a Full-Blown Dance Extravaganza
Ever scrolled through Instagram and felt a deep FOMO pang seeing friends frolicking at a festival that looks like Coachella's cooler, less-dusty cousin? That, my friend, is most likely Listen Out Melbourne.
But what exactly is this mythical music mecca?
Listen Out Melbourne is basically a giant party in a field (specifically, Caribbean Gardens in Scoresby) where you can shake your groove thing to a killer lineup of hip-hop, indie, and electronic artists. It's a one-day sensory overload in the best way possible – think bright lights, thumping beats, and enough good vibes to power a small city.

Listen Out Melbourne for Dummies:
- Age restriction: Gotta be 16 or older to join the fun.
- The lowdown on the location: Caribbean Gardens in Scoresby (1280 Ferntree Gully Road, Scoresby, 3179 to be precise).
- When is it all happening? It's an annual shindig, usually held in late September/early October. Mark your calendars!
But wait, there's more! Listen Out Melbourne boasts three epic stages with names that would make your inner 80s kid do a fist pump: The Atari Stage, the 909 Stage, and the Third Base (formerly known as some sponsor names you probably forgot anyway). Each stage throws down with a killer lineup, ensuring you never have to miss your favorite act (unless you get distracted by a giant inflatable pizza, which, hey, no judgment).
Pro tip: Wear comfy shoes – there's a lot of ground to cover (and dance on)
Tip: Keep your attention on the main thread.
