In The Pines 2025
THE LINE-UP FOR BOORLOO'S FAVOURITE DAY OF MUSIC: RTRFM’s IN THE PINES ON SUNDAY 13 APRIL.
The music experts at RTRFM have handpicked twenty amazing local acts to play the iconic annual fundraiser In the Pines on Sunday 13 April.
Returning for its 32nd consecutive year in the idyllic surrounds of UWA’s Somerville Auditorium, In the Pines is the most important day of the year for any self-respecting music lover in Boorloo.
Twenty of the state’s best loved artists—including the established and the emerging—will play across two stages inside Somerville. Join us to witness this annual snapshot of Western Australian music, with acts including:
Airline Food // Bigardoo feat Cozza Emcee // The Bures Band // Front Yard Horse //
Gap Year // The Ghoulies // Gloam // Helen Townsend // Holli Scott // Jacob Diamond // Kankawa Nagarra // King Ibis // Lloyd and the Leftovers // Lonesome Dove // Mali Jo$e // Nika Mo // Noah Dillon // Outcome Unknown presents The Definitives // Scratching // Yomi Ship
In The Pines is a celebration of local music, bringing together some of the best talent from our town and sharing it with the people of Perth for one amazing day and night. The event also raises essential funds for RTRFM, allowing the not-for-profit community station to keep platforming local arts and culture for another year.
In the Pines 2025 brings you some of the state’s most promising new acts, including Bigardoo feat Cozza Emcee, Gloam, Front Yard Horse and Lloyd and the Leftovers, plus longtime faves Gap Year, King Ibis, Noah Dillon, Holli Scott and Airline Food.
We get a bit loud with Yomi Ship, Lonesome Dove and The Ghoulies, while making time to get a little experimental and ambient with Outcome Unknown presents The Definitives, Scratching, Kankawa Nagarra and Nika Mo.
And we go large with Mali Jo$e, The Bures Band, Helen Townsend and Jacob Diamond.
In The Pines is the perfect snapshot of WA music over the last year, but it’s more than simply a day of music. There’ll be food trucks and coffee from George’s Kebabs, Lola’s Spring Rolls, Osaka Okonomiyaki, Charlie’s Pizza and The Kelley Jane as well as drinks from Whitelakes Brewing Co, Shelter Brewing, Vino Volta, Whipper Snapper, Kimberley Rum Company and Little Things Gin.
In 2025 we welcome back our sensory zone in collaboration with Enable WA supported by Plico; a space for neurodivergent punters and those who need a break from the noise to chill out.

SAFETY AND ACCESSIBILITY:
RTRFM events aim to be a safe space for self-expression, fun and community. Your safety is our number one priority. We will not tolerate any unfriendly, aggressive or offensive behaviour. If you feel unsafe or uncomfortable at any point please speak to an RTRFM or the venue staff.
In The Pines is fully accessible with paths and hard compact ground in most areas. Entrances and exits are 3m in width and accessible toilets are available for use. There are grassed areas and RTRFM volunteers and staff will be on hand to assist where needed.
We will also have clearly visible Pines Pals around the venue to help with any accessibility needs, including helping order and grab food from food vans which will be at a height, point out the toilets and maneuver around people where needed. There will also be a sensory zone managed by Enable WA which will be on hand for people who need a break from noise and over stimulation.
Some flashing lights will be in use but no strobe lighting will be on site. Auslan interpretation will not be available. Please also note UWA Somerville has changed their ground coverings from mulch to a harder pebble. Although you can still picnic we suggest bringing cushions and a few extra blankets to make your picnic more comfortable. The position of the main stage will also move forward 4 metres but there will still be plenty of space for you all.
If you have any accessibility enquiries please email admin@rtrfm.com.au
