Laneway’s 2023 return to Melbourne for the first time in three years scored a four-star review from Kristen S. Hé for NME, who wrote: “As the punters leave and crowd into the trains home, it feels like a blessing to be this exhausted by live music again. Laneway has outgrown its humble origins and outlasted its predecessors to become one of Australia’s largest city-based festivals – but when it’s this well-curated, who can complain?”
