If Golden Plains wasn't a festival memorable enough, Bon Iver has been announced as the headline act to appear on the glorious long weekend next autumn. Oh and the godfather of psychadelic rock, Roky Erickson, is also playing.

No commercial sponsors, a No Dickheads rule and a BYO policy makes Golden Fields the relaxed, perfect festival we ought to see more often in Victoria. It only has one stunning amphitheater, which means there’s no running between acts, being crushed by crowds or feeling like your at a bad theme park. There are films to be screened, drinks to be had and a huge lineup yet to be announced. We can’t wait.
