We weren’t joking when we said the Mountain Goat Valley Crawl was going large this year – no strangers to expansion and growth, organisers have upped the ante to include a whopping ten venues. Joining original venues The Foundry, Black Bear Lodge, the zoo, Barbara, The Flying Cock, Crowbar and The Brightside are brand-new players Sabotage Social, Blute’s Bar and Greaser, collectively hosting a very impressive 51 acts over the course of the night. The ambitious bill is a carefully curated blend of artists from all around the country with one thing in common – a killer live show.

The Mountain Goat Valley Crawl’s line-up is truly chockers with fresh sounds – from Newcastle heroes RAAVE TAPES through to Melbourne’s swoon-worthy IV League and local dreamy electro-babe San Mei, there is something to suit every niche. The diversity of venues lends itself well to the acts on offer – after all, where else would you be able to see Mosquito Coast and Being Jane Lane in the same night (for free and within a block of each other, to boot)? It’s not just the musical talent that will have you frothing – the Crawl has also partnered with local legends like 4ZZZ, Phoebe Paradise and Sonic Sherpa to activate a number of its spaces.

As always, the Mountain Goat Valley Crawl is a free-entry affair – you can plot out your musical journey for the night with this timetable.
