Having confirmed their return back in March, following a very successful inaugural year, the organisers of UNIFY Gathering 2016 have announced they have finalised their entire lineup for next year’s event and they’re going big for their sophomore year.

In addition to “the cream of the crop” of Australian bands, organisers have managed to find space for three international acts. They’re even promising that the event’s second instalment will top their inaugural event, with only three repeat acts, all of whom have new albums.

The full lineup is set to drop on 25th September, with a limited amount of early bird tickets set to go on sale next week for those who purchased tickets to the 2015 event. Those who did can expect info to be emailed to you soon, so keep an eye out.

Early Bird tickets for 2016 will be priced at $139 + bf, while a standard ticket will cost you $149 + bf later on, which is a bit of a jump on the 2015 ticket price, but organisers are assuring punters it’s a “necessary adjustment” to make 2016 even better.

“The lineup, the site layout and the amenities will be a considerable step up this time around, while still retaining everything you loved about Year One. Trust us, it’s going to be worth every cent for what we have programmed!” organisers write.

UNIFY Gathering enjoyed an extremely successful launch earlier this year, with a stacked lineup featuring some of Australia’s biggest names in heavy music, including The Amity Affliction, In Hearts Wake, Deez Nuts, Thy Art Is Murder, and Northlane.
