Good Things is a music festival held in major cities around Australia. It features a number of international and Australian music acts, from various genres including rock, metal, punk, and emo.[1] At its inaugural festival, the headline act was The Offspring.

History

The Good Things festival debuted in Melbourne, before playing at Sydney and Brisbane. Two weeks before the first festival, Destroy All Lines announced that under-aged ticket holders would have to be accompanied by an adult. The move was met with outrage as festival-goers and parents alike described it as 'unfair'.[2]

The 2018 festival was sponsored by Nintendo Switch, Marshall Amplification, Vans, Uppercut Deluxe, Dangerfield, Jack Daniel's, Furphy Ale, Captain Morgan, and Smirnoff.[3]

2018

The 2018 Good Things festival was headlined by The Offspring playing their 1994 album Smash in its entirety[4], and Stone Sour.
