After a hugely successful sold-out AO Finals Festival at Kia Arena this year, the event moves to John Cain Arena for AO 2024, where up to 10,000 fans can enjoy the incredible line up.
The AO Finals Festival will take place over three days at the AO, starting on January 25 which coincides with AO Pride Day, and continuing over the women’s and men’s finals on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 January.
It is the largest open air music festival staged at John Cain Arena in the history of the venue.
“The AO Finals Festival was such a sold-out success last year so it was a very easy decision for us to move it to a bigger venue with bigger crowds, and that’s exactly what we’ve done hosting it at JCA,” Tennis Australia’s Chief Commercial Officer Cedric Cornelis said.
“Finals Festival also brings a whole new audience to the Australian Open, and we want to further grow that opportunity this year.
“The AO Finals Festival will be a perfect way to end what is shaping up to be an iconic AO 2024.”
The lineup for the AO Finals Festival has been put together by Melbourne’s Untitled Group.
“The Australian Open is one of the most loved events on Melbourne’s calendar, so there is no better time to bring together tennis and some of the best global music to the stage, right in the heart of Summer’s favourite tennis tournament,” said Untitled Group’s Music Programmer Pia Del Mastro.
“Untitled Group are proud to return to the Australian Open in 2024, giving tennis and music fans alike an amazing day out, full of forefront artists across three jam-packed days of music festival entertainment.”
