Even after 26 years, there’s still new ways the Deni Ute Muster can make history.

And we’re not referring to its Guinness World Record attempts.
Tickets for the October 3 and 4 event are selling at a record-breaking pace, which could see tickets exhausted before the event rolls around in eight weeks.
Deni Ute Muster general manager Vicky Lowry is encouraging fans to secure tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment, as last-minute purchases or gate sales may not be available.
“We’re incredibly proud to see the 2025 Deni Ute Muster tracking towards a historic sell out, as we see ticket sales at an all-time high - a true reflection of the passion fans have for our iconic event,” she said.
“Each year, we work hard to deliver an unforgettable experience, and this year we’re raising the bar with a jam-packed program from the moment the gates open.
“We cannot wait to welcome Musterers from across the country to Deniliquin to be part of this milestone moment.”
Ticket sales have been spurred on by musical and around the grounds entertainment announcements throughout this year.
And Mrs Lowry said they’re not done yet.
“As well as an incredible music line-up from morning until late night, we pride ourselves on the array of activities that are on offer at the Deni Ute Muster, and this year’s event is filled with action-packed adventures and attractions for all the family.
“Another first for the Deni Ute Muster is the inclusion of entertainment for early arrivers on Thursday, October 2.
“We highly recommend arriving for Thursday early entry camping and gate opening.
“For Musterers who can arrive even earlier, head to visitdeni.com for local accommodation options.”
Zac Brown Band is one of several great musical acts confirmed for the 2025 Deni Ute Muster.
As part of the gate opening ceremony at 8am on that Thursday, Red Bull's Matt Hall will fly over the site to officially kick-start the festivities.
He is the most successful air race pilot in the modern era, with seven wins and 25 podiums, world champion and former Royal Australian Air Force top gunfighter pilot.
Expect a thrilling display performed in an Extra 300L capable of 10G, roll rate of 400 degrees a second, top speed 220knots and 330 horsepower.
At about 1pm, all eyes will again look up for another breathtaking spectacle when talented parachutist Rodney Benson, brought along with the Paul Bennet Airshows team, will descend from above, proudly flying a custom flag.
Once the sun sets over the plains and everyone is on-site and set up, sit back and enjoy an additional fireworks display from Howard & Sons.
Come Friday, the nation will wake up with visions of the Deni Ute Muster, with Channel 7’s Sunrise confirmed to be broadcasting from the site from 6am.
Sam Mac will once again show the rest of the country what they’re missing out on.
Another addition to the program is a chance to join Holly and Grace from Ladies Love Country for a line dancing demonstration on the Saturday from 12.30pm, at the front of the main stage, right before the legendary Blue Single Count kicks off at 1pm.
Don’t miss your chance to see The Wiggles, an amazing line-up of other international and local country music superstars, and the huge array of around the grounds entertainment.
