The exclusivity descriptions were reported in January 2024 coverage of the lineup additions and should be read in that event-specific context. The Music’s report on the additions gives the headliner exclusivity details.

- HIGH FIDELITY EAR PLUGS - You may experience muffling when you wear foam-based ones. But those days are gone. You will be able to hear different sound frequencies and talk to people with these HIFI earplugs since they reduce noise evenly and maintain the full frequency.
- ECO-FRIENDLY DESIGN - These hypoallergenic silicone earplugs are washable and reusable, so if you keep them right, they will stay with you for years. In contrast, the Polyurethane foam takes up to 5 years to degrade in nature. So it's cool to have personalized and exclusive silicone earplugs!
- NOISE REDUCTION 23dB - The acoustic filter elements in the ear plug can reduce the volume by 23 dB, which is an ideal value for concerts or band rehearsals. So you can do more of what you love while minimizing the risk of noise-induced hearing loss, tinnitus, and anxiety.
- REURE CAN PROTECT YOU ANYWHERE - The compact case protects your earplugs. You can attach it on your key chain, jeans, or backpack and it can follow you anywhere. Ideal for concerts, noise sensitivity, tinnitus relief, motorcycles, musicians, sports events, flying, sleeping noise cancelling, etc.
- PERFECT FIT GUARANTEE - Every order comes with two pairs of different-sized ear plugs so that you can have the most comfortable experience. If you have any problems when you are using it, please get in touch with our support team to get the best after-sales service 🙂
NME described that first reveal as featuring 26 acts. That figure refers to the initial announcement, not a final count: further performers were added later, and the bill varied by city. NME’s 5 September 2023 announcement report covers the first reveal. In that period, triple j also reported that “one third” of the offering would be making their Australian debut; this was a forward-looking statement, not a final audited tally.

By the final lineup update, Cordae had replaced Suki Waterhouse, who was no longer able to perform. Further local acts were added to some city bills, including additions highlighted for Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. As a result, the final lineup was not identical at every stop; the January 2024 triple j report lists the broad bill and city-specific information.
