Spilt Milk House Party review: Troye Sivan, Glass Animals, G Flip perform at Kings Park festival

Dianella-raised superstar and gay icon Troye Sivan told Spilt Milk House Party fans how unreal it felt to go from seeing home videos of himself singing in Kings Park as a three-year-old to headlining a festival in front of thousands at the venue.

The 29-year-old took to the stage at 9.30pm on Saturday and Sunday for a sexually-charged 50-minute performance at the rescheduled festival format after the original was cancelled in July.

Launching into Got Me Started, the crowd went wild with passion for the talented singer-songwriter and dancer.

Throughout his set, Sivan managed to make four outfit changes and perform a range of his hit songs from the classic 1999 ft Charli XCX to One Of Your Girls from his 2023 album.

Much to the crowd’s delight he even sang Talk Talk from Charli’s remix version of her album Brat.

Having completed an international tour with the UK pop star, Sivan said it was good to be back home.

“I’ve partied all around the world but this is where I learnt to party,” he said as fans screamed.

He even mentioned how it felt surreal to be playing in the stunning Kings Park.

“I have home videos of me as a three-year-old singing in Kings Park. It’s very cool to be doing this right now, thank you,” he said.

Sivan and his six shirtless (at times) dancers filled the night with extreme sexual tension on stage.

At one point Sivan dry-humped one of his dancers and passionately kissed another one with the intimate moment broadcasted on the LED screens at the side of the stage.

Sivan wasn’t afraid to hold back and gave it his all for the expertly choreographed dance numbers.

Other highlights of his set included singing My My My!, Bloom, You, the moment he revealed his toned abdomen and his dancers putting on a show in nothing but tights and heels.

Another honourable mention was the cameraman’s work on stage who live recorded Sivan’s seductive facial expressions during songs.

The moments were mirrored on the huge screens and added a fun visual element.

Earlier in the day, artists Sycco, Artemas (UK), GFlip and Glass Animals (UK) got the audience hyped for the main event with engaging and impressive sets full of songs fans knew every word to.

Overall, House Party bought the vibes fit for a Sunday sesh with festivalgoers being respectful of one another.

The mosh pit was fenced off with one entry and exit allowing numbers in front of the stage to be controlled to a safe limit that included plenty of dance space.

Adding to the atmosphere of the night was the fact all the music acts matched each other’s energy—there wasn’t one that felt out of place.

The verdict

4 out of 5 stars
