Well, hot damn! Good Things Festival 2022 has officially dropped the line-up for December 2022 tour dates in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne - and straight up, we have headliners who have dropped two of the biggest rock and metal records in the past few years, we've got punk royalty, we've got bands re-forming to play classic material, and a tonne of Aussie acts to round it out, all that and more - YA LOVE TO SEE IT!
The past few years have been painful in terms of waiting for festivals and tours to return to their former glory and for things to return to some semblance of 'normal' - and this line-up is 100% a statement - BIG TIME ROCK FESTIVALS are back, baby! The wait was worth it - this is why we can have Nice Things!

Good Things Festival, Destroy All Lines' touring festival returns this year - and how about this line-up? Let's walk through this absolutely TASTY rack of bands!
December 2022 will see BRIT and Grammy nominated, multi-platinum selling UK artists BRING ME THE HORIZON hitting Australian shores to headline; alongside them is American alternative metal heavyweights Deftones! Throw in rough-and-tumble Pioneers of SoCal punk NOFX performing their 1994 iconic album ‘Punk In Drublic’, an Australian miracle with TISM playing their first live performances in 19 years, Queensland metallers The Amity Affliction bringing the epic metalcore, Japanese rockers ONE OK ROCK bringing the party times and French progressive metal behemoths GOJIRA - and friends, this is heaven.
....and we haven't even got to the undercard yet... let's dive in!
Let's mix in some delicious goth heaviness via Italian quintet LACUNA COIL, some firebrand party-starters in the form of FEVER 333, some crushingly brutal Ukrainian metal in the shape of JINJER, German metalcore shapeshifters ELECTRIC CALLBOY will be making their first ever trip down under for the occasion, and superstar start-up JXDN also set to chalk up his first-ever Australian performances.
But it's STILL NOT DONE.
Let's hear it for Swedish troublemakers MILLENCOLIN and Californian pop punk lords THE STORY SO FAR, Norwegian punk rockers BLOOD COMMAND along with their Aussie front-woman Nikki Brumen and Florida alternative giants SLEEPING WITH SIRENS!
RAPID-FIRE ROUND: How about these? 3OH!3, NOVA TWINS, SABATON, SOULFLY, COSMIC PSYCHOS, REGURGITATOR, KISSCHASY (playing United Paper People in full!), CHASING GHOSTS, POLARIS, REDHOOK AND THORNHILL!
