Music Industry Growing and Lost Paradise's Wellness Program | Music News

After a slow start to the year due to extended government pandemic restrictions, the Australian live business burst back with encouraging figures.

The response from industry leaders was that the domestic live sector is going into a golden era.

Promoters and venue operators are not only expecting a solid return in 2023, but a robust 2024 as well.

Looking at the Pollstar results, it is obvious the promoters and venues who took planning risks in the last few years of lockdown are now reaping the benefits.

Meanwhile, Australian summer festival favourite Lost Paradise has announced a different kind of lineup. Organisers of the Central Coast event have just unveiled an extensive health and wellness program for this year’s New Years bash, dubbed Shambhala Fields.

It lines up an array of health, wellness and music-based workshops, talks, First Nations spaces and more, featuring some big names including:

• Triple j science guru Dr Karl
• master yogi Simon Borg-Olivier
• classically-trained dancer
• model and social media star Mimi Elashiry
• Byron Hinterlands-Bundjalung region based artist
• radio host Luen
• and many more!

Described as an “oasis for boundary-pushing thinkers where curiosity is key”, the Shambhala Fields program will be packed with:

• Yoga classes
• belly dancing workshops
• deep tissue massages
• and countless other mind, body and soul-nourishing activities, in keeping with the festival’s proud reputation as a place for exchanging future-facing ideas.

There will be a cultural program completely orchestrated by First Nation Australians from Darkinjung country, as well as essential growth offering, Healing Haven, which will offer tarot card readings, acupuncture and loads more.

This is all, of course, in addition to the Lost Paradise music lineup,  which shares many artists in common with the 2022-23 Falls Festival, including headliners Arctic Monkeys, Lil Nas X, Peggy Gou and Jamie xx. There are plenty of local names too, such as G Flip, Ocean Alley and Genesis Owusu, and an enormous roster of DJs.
