If you know what’s good for you, this time next month you’ll be vibing out to some quality Australian live music in the picturesque surrounds of Lake Mountain Alpine Resort. Yes, the brilliant Paradise Music Festival is almost here and if you haven’t booked your tickets yet, we need to have a serious chat.

Boasting the likes of Gold Class, Harvey Sutherland, Baro, and Pearls, the festival is (once again) stacked with amazing local talent. And if you’ve ever experienced the three-day event (even vicariously through us), you’ll know that it’s also one of the best looking camping festivals you could go to. Paradise features some legit luxe accommodation and entertainment precincts, luring many a self-confessed ‘high maintenance’ music fan out into the middle of nowhere for three days.

In honour of the truly boutique nature of Paradise, we tapped a few of this year’s artists for their Top 3 things to pack for such an event. An interesting and stylistically diverse bunch, Fortunes, SAL, Lossless, Infinity Blade, friendships, and Moon Holiday all let us into their festival duffle bags (or roller cases) and offered up some valuable insight into how to protect your extremities and personal brand.

Tickets are available here and the good people at Paradise are offering a generous $100 discount on group bookings.
