It’s gonna be a hot summer: ICF announces spicy first lineup, extended season

Following a few drip feeds over the weekend, ICF (formerly Ice Cream Factory) has unveiled one hell of a first lineup for the upcoming – and extended – 2024/25 season.

That’s right, the Northbridge party palace has outgrown its usual December dates, running from November 22 until February 15, 2025.

Over 18 nights and three stages, punters will get a sizzling selection of international talent, national icons and all of ICF’s fun activities thrown in to boot.

The confirmed global talent includes international icons like already-announced Ireland indie-dance trio Two Door Cinema Club, tech house pioneer Patrick Topping and four-time DJ Awards winner Dance
Legend Solomun.

Indie-dance legends Hot Chip also swing by a DJ set, plus there’s a secret headliner from Canada to be announced soon.

When it comes to the Aussie contingent, you’ll catch the likes of Vera Blue, Peking Duk, Luude, Montaigne, The Jungle Giants, Cub Sport, Pnau and the Perth Symphony Orchestra giving Fred Again’s prolific hits an orchestral makeover with Fiona Campbell and DJ Wildflower.

“We are so excited to release our 2024 lineup which continues to grow year on year,” said Bar Pop co-founder and director, Chris Bausor.

The Ice Cream Factory is now firmly on the map as a completely unique performance space for international touring names allowing us to secure top-tier talent like never before.

Pre-sale tickets are available from Tuesday 29 October at 6pm with a 24% discount for 24 hours, before GA tickets go on sale Wednesday 30 October at 6pm.
