Pitch Music & Arts Returns for 10th-Anniversary Edition in 2027

Pitch Music & Arts will once again gather for its 10th-anniversary edition in 2027, resurfacing in the Gariwerd foothills of Victoria, Australia, from March 5th to 9th. The electronic and arts festival, overseen by Untitled Group, kicked off its 2027 promotional push with a teaser video centered around a time capsule, interspersed with archival footage from previous iterations.

Organizers have teased an anniversary edition that respects the festival's origins, promising "boundary-pushing surprises" alongside nods to earlier years, including references to the inaugural 2017 event.

Filippo Palermo, co-founder and managing partner of Untitled Group, emphasized the significance of reaching the tenth edition, stating, "Reaching our tenth edition is an incredibly meaningful milestone for us." He noted that Pitch began with a vision to unite music, art, and community, growing and adapting each year, shaped as much by returning attendees as by the festival's evolution.

The 2027 lineup remains undisclosed. The program will once more span three distinct stages: the ruggedly modern Pitch One, the Funktion-One-equipped Resident Advisor Stage, and the dual-level Pitch Black, inspired by Berlin's underground clubs and historic amphitheaters. The Rock Pool, introduced in 2026 as a space for respite, will return, along with the Pitch Pavilion for ambient sets and wellness programming, with returning arts curator Anna Nalpantidis.

This milestone arrives in a challenging period for Australia's festival landscape, marked by a surge of cancellations and closures amid rising costs and dwindling ticket sales. Pitch has served as a relative bright spot, earning a spot among a select few Australian-owned festivals in global fan-voted rankings, alongside Untitled Group's own Beyond the Valley.

Passes for the 2027 edition are available in two, three, and four-day options, with presale registration now open.
