Spilt Milk is an Australian music festival first held exclusively in Canberra in 2016 before expanding to Ballarat in 2019, Gold Coast in 2022, and Perth in 2023.

Spilt Milk was established by Kicks Entertainment and has [https://musicfeeds.com.au/news/spilt-milk-2018-sold-out-ticket-resale-facility-announced/ sold out within hours] every single year of launching.

The festival is normally held in November and December each year, although the 2020, 2021 and 2024 festivals did not go ahead, the former two due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia and the latter related to financial costs and fluctuating ticket sales, though the 2024 edition was able to run as smaller "House Party" events instead.
