CORE is travelling further from home than ever before.
On Saturday, November 28, CORE will make its Australian debut, landing in Melbourne for its very first edition in the country.
Hosted at the Flemington Racecourse, this edition marks another major step in CORE’s international journey. With a carefully curated lineup, CORE continues its global expansion by unlocking its fifth continent.
Tickets for the Melbourne edition are now available.

CORE will land at The Nursery, the green open-air setting within Melbourne’s iconic Flemington Racecourse. Surrounded by nature while remaining just minutes from the city centre and easily accessible by public transport, the venue offers the ideal setting for CORE’s world of music and visual storytelling.
After editions across Europe, the Americas , and Asia, CORE now reaches its fifth continent, making this the furthest CORE event ever organized.
The line up reflects CORE’s commitment to bringing together internationally acclaimed names and forward-thinking talent from across the electronic music spectrum.
Leading the announcement is a highly anticipated back-to-back set from Australian favourite Mall Grab and UK powerhouse Effy, a pairing that brings together two of the most exciting names in contemporary electronic music. The mainstage will also welcome Honey Dijon, Moodymann, TSHA and Dino Lenny.
The Melbourne edition will furthermore mark the return of the Mano stage, making only its second appearance at a CORE Festival following its debut at CORE Los Angeles.
Dedicated to cutting-edge underground sounds, the stage will host performances from Daria Kolosova, fumi and Noise Mafia b2b Peterblue. The latter back-to-back pairing carries a special significance, with both Colombian artists sharing the same roots and scene that CORE has been closely connected to over the past three years.
Additional artists will be announced in the coming weeks.
