Torch Fest Sydney

Torch Fest is a first-of-its-kind mental health music festival, shining a light on inspirational artists and their stories.

The name Torch Fest comes from the idea that everyone has a Torch Song; the light that gets you through.

With mental health having such a huge impact on the music industry, especially in recent Covid times, the festival is a chance to eradicate the stigma associated with talking about mental health, while retaining the essence of fun and celebration.

All performers on the day perform their Torch Song, the light that gets you through, as part of their full set and the festival provides torches, for each attendee, to flick on when each of the Torch Songs are played throughout the day.

The festival attracts attendees that want to see their favourite artists in an up-close-and-personal setting, not in a sprawling field with thousands of people, and enables artists and fans alike to feel safe, and be vulnerable if they feel the need, through a unique experience.

The event lineup includes: Bec Sandridge, Sayah, Aya Yves, David Taylor, Tiarnie, Seb Szabo, Laura Hyde, Sarah Wolfe, Azure, LamBros., Rissa, BVT, Imogen Clark, Amy Vee and Little Green.
