Folded Music Festival

Ballina’s all-ages music festival is back – bigger, louder, and more vibrant than ever!

Hosted by local mental health charity The Healthy Minds Club, the Folded Festival promises an afternoon packed with live music, youth creativity, and community connection, all in a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere.

This year’s headline act is none other than Eliza and the Delusionals – the Northern Rivers’ own indie rock powerhouse, fresh from announcing their national tour. With millions of streams and major accolades under their belt, their return to Ballina is set to be huge.

But the real stars of Folded are the school-aged bands who’ll be taking the stage throughout the afternoon, showcasing the next generation of local talent. One standout act will even score a full day in a professional recording studio – a chance to record, mix and master their debut single!

Beyond the music, you can expect an open skate bowl and free food thanks to Ballina on Richmond Rotary Club.

So grab your picnic blanket, skateboard, and your loudest cheering voice – and come support the stars of tomorrow at the Folded Festival.
