Yours and Owls set times, line up, camping, after party and more

Headline acts include electro group Peking Duk, Middle Kids, Jungle Giants, Angus and Julia Stone plus Illawarra stars like Hockey Dad and Tumbleweed.

This year organisers have spent more money on bands, more money on infrastructure and increased patron capacity to 18,000 people over the two days (up from 14,000 in 2017).

Scroll down for your essential guide to Wollongong’s long standing musical gathering.

As of Monday evening, the Bureau of Meteorology forecast a top of 20 for Saturday with a shower or two, and top of 16 and a shower or two for Sunday.

Perhaps an idea to bring a jumper and some sunscreen.

Motorists should allow extra travel time around North Wollongong on Saturday and Sunday.

Up to 9000 people are expected at the musical festival each day from midday to 11pm.

There will be increased vehicle and pedestrian activity along Bourke Street between Princes Highway and Kembla Street, plus Kembla Street between George Hanley Drive and Corrimal Street.

Traffic will also be heavy on approaches to Wollongong along Memorial Drive, Princes Motorway, Princes Highway, Corrimal Street and Cliff Road during the weekend.

Limited parking is available around Stuart Park so public transport or a designated drive to drop-off is advised.

The closest train station is North Wollongong which is on the South Coast train line – then walk down Bourke Street then left at Cliff Road to arrive at the venue.

Additional trains will run to North Wollongong for the event. The free Gong shuttle bus will operate in a loop around Wollongong making stops at North Wollongong station and near Stuart Park.

There have been a few lineup changes along the way for both the Under 18s mini-festival at Waves at Towradgi Beach Hotel, and the main two-day festival at Stuart Park in North Wollongong.

Here is the final set times and who’s playing.

FYI DD Dumbo has pulled OUT of the event, Sarah Blasko will be the replacement.
