The idea for the Symmetry Music Festival was born out of a love for music and a desire to bring people together. The festival takes place on the weekend of the last supermoon of 2025 which will appear larger and brighter, due to its closest approach, lighting up the summer sky. Attendees can expect a weekend of local and international DJs with Friday and Sunday featuring an amazing female line up on both stages, incredible entertainers, camping, games, competitions, give-aways, swimming, market, food trucks, spa, chill zones and light shows, neon body art, pool bar, beer tent with big screen not to miss the rugby, bubbles and wine bar, and our tiki bar for a few full moon buckets! and loads more surprises… to guarantee an unforgettable experience!
