0

An enchanting music and lifestyle camping festival set deep in the heart of the Australian wilderness; taking place across three days (Friday 15 February 14 – Sunday 17 February 2019) within the magnificent countryside of Carapooee West, Victoria.

Babylon features an inspired curation of local and international live and electronic music artists, alongside a unique world of visual art, mindfulness and community exploration. Coming into its third year, Babylon has grown exponentially since its inception in 2017 and the experience extends far beyond the music. Offering a vibrant atmosphere, revellers can participate in a variety of workshops, meander through the marketplace and food village and be free of everyday pressure, judgement and limitations.

BABYLON Visual Arts 
We are pleased to welcome the renowned visual artist Daniel Popper to the list of talent on offer at Babylon 2019.

Daniel Popper is a multi disciplinary artist who’s unafraid of a challenge or the seemingly impossible. Proudly hailing from Cape Town, Daniel’s made a name for himself as the go-to person for larger-than-life spectacular public art installations.

Daniel is identifiable through artworks and stage fabrications at outdoor music festivals which really convey the spirit of Daniel’s work, which as he says are intended “to create a kind of portal for people to access deeper parts of themselves and their psyche.

BABYLON Early Access
For those who want a chance to get in early, pick the best camping spot and get set up before the official start on Friday, we are offering early access tickets this year. This will give access to the site from 12 midday on Thursday 14th of February. This requires an Early Access ticket which can be purchased separately to your full festival ticket. 

BABYLON Ethos
Our ethos revolves around one simple idea; revellers are to be kind, caring and respectful of their fellow festival goers and of the environment. Most importantly, they should always look out for their friends, leave any attitude behind as there is no place for it at Babylon. Together, we can create a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere through inclusion, tolerance, respect and diversity.
