Savannah In The Round has revealed its US headliners for the 2025 festival, set to take place in Mareeba this October. Joining an already impressive lineup, Zac Brown Band and Jackson Dean will bring their unique sounds to the stage, promising to elevate the festival experience to new heights.
The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning Southern rock group Zac Brown Band, will take the spotlight as the festival’s headline act. Known for their world-class live performances, the band has sold over 30.5 million singles, 9.3 million albums, and accumulated more than 11.2 billion catalogue streams worldwide. With a career spanning over a decade, the Zac Brown Band is one of the most dynamic live acts in music.
Also joining the festival headliner roster is Jackson Dean, whose raw, powerful voice has made waves in the country music scene. His debut single, Don’t Come Lookin’, topped country radio charts, amassed over 150 million streams, and was featured on the Yellowstone soundtrack. Dean’s debut album Greenbroke (2022) and follow-up On the Back of My Dreams (2024) have earned critical acclaim and solidified his place among country music's rising stars. This will be Dean’s third tour of Australia in 3 years.
Festival director James Dein shared, “We are beyond thrilled to announce Zac Brown Band and Jackson Dean as our U.S. headliners for Savannah in the Round 2025. Zac Brown Band’s legendary status and Jackson Dean’s meteoric rise in the country music scene are the perfect fit for our eclectic lineup. Together, they’ll create an unforgettable experience for festival-goers in the stunning Tropical North. We can’t wait for the Savannah tribe to welcome them to our stage!”
The addition of these two powerhouse acts enhances an already diverse lineup featuring both international and homegrown talent. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Mareeba Rodeo Arena in Queensland's Cairns Hinterland, Savannah in the Round 2025 promises to be a festival to remember, with vibrant performances and an unforgettable atmosphere.
