Pitch Music & Arts Returns for 10th-Anniversary Edition in 2027
Pitch Music & Arts will celebrate its 10th edition in 2027, returning to the foothills of Gariwerd (the Grampians) in Victoria, Australia, from March 5-9 for a milestone chapter.
The electronic and arts festival, run by Untitled Group, launched its 2027 campaign with a teaser video framed around a time capsule, cutting through archival footage from past editions.
Organizers have promised an anniversary edition that nods to the festival’s earlier years — including references to its very first 2017 event — while teasing “boundary-pushing surprises.” “Reaching our tenth edition is an incredibly meaningful milestone for us,” Untitled Group co-founder and managing partner Filippo Palermo said in a statement.
“Pitch began with a clear vision for bringing music, art and community together and has grown and evolved year after year, shaped just as much by the people who return as the festival itself.” A lineup has not yet been announced.
The 2027 program will again unfold across three custom-built stages — the brutalist-inspired Pitch One, the Funktion-One-equipped Resident Advisor Stage and the dual-level Pitch Black, modeled on Berlin’s underground clubs and historic amphitheaters.
The Rock Pool, introduced in 2026 as a space to cool off, returns alongside the Pitch Pavilion for ambient sets and wellbeing programming, with Anna Nalpantidis back for a second year as arts curator.
The milestone arrives at a precarious time for Australia’s festival sector, which has seen a wave of cancellations and closures in recent years amid rising costs and softening ticket sales.
Pitch has been a relative bright spot: it was recently named one of only a handful of Australian-owned festivals to appear in a global fan-voted rankings list, alongside Untitled Group’s own Beyond the Valley.
Passes for the 2027 edition will be available in two, three- and four-day options, with presale registration now open.
