Supporting Local Talent

Supporting local talent has always been a core part of Victorious. Since 2017, over 1,900 festival slots have been filled by local performers, thanks to our work with brilliant local promoters.

In 2023, we launched Road to Victorious — an incredible talent competition giving even more local artists the chance to shine.
We’re proud to come from a city full of creativity and love providing a platform for local talent to gain experience, exposure, and share what they do with a wider audience.

Supporting Local Talent

“Supporting local and unsigned talent has always been at the heart of Victorious. As locals ourselves, we started out in this very music scene, so it means a lot to give something back.

Whether it’s through festival performances, links with venues and promoters, or projects like ‘Road to Victorious’, we’re proud to help nurture the next generation of musicians.

A student recently told me he picked up a guitar after attending Victorious with his parents—stories like that remind us why we do what we do.”

“Victorious was built on the foundation of incredible unsigned acts—some local, some just passing through, all unforgettable.

As we’ve grown, so have the opportunities. Giving up-and-coming performers the chance to share a line-up with artists they admire is something truly special. For many, it’s the start of an exciting journey.”
