The exciting announcement was made on social media on Thursday, revealing dates and locations that promise an electrifying lineup and unforgettable experiences.
Festival organisers shared a clip which captured Spilt Milk's highlights from previous years and captioned it with some exciting words.
'Spilt Milk summer confirmed. See you in Ballarat, Perth, Canberra and Gold Coast this December,' they began.
'Lineup droppin' crazy soon, sign up in link in bio to get it to your inbox.'

Australia's biggest single-day touring festival, Spilt Milk, is set to make a triumphant comeback in 2025, after a hiatus last year left music fans heartbroken
Perth's Claremont Showground will host the festivities on December 7, followed by Canberra on December 13 and the Gold Coast on December 14.
These dates mark a return to some of the festival's favourite destinations, promising to bring music lovers together once again.
Speculation about the lineup is rife, with fans eagerly anticipating the reveal in the coming days.
Past festivals have seen a stellar cast of performers, including Post Malone, FISHER, Khalid, Lorde, Flume and Latto ensuring each year delivers top-tier entertainment.
In 2024, the festival took an unexpected break, leaving many wondering about its future.
In July, it was cancelled in a major blow to Australian music lovers.
It was the latest in a series of festivals to be cancelled as the industry endured a tough year.
The organisers broke the sad news on Instagram.

'Sorry pookies, we couldn't get you the Spilt Milk you deserve this year. Sooo imma dip for a bit and come back when I can make all ur dreams come true. i miss u xx SPILT MILK,' the statement said.
Spilt Milk 2023 was headlined by Post Malone and Dom Dolla.
It was unclear why the festival was called off, however others struggled to sell enough tickets.
Splendour in the Grass, Groovin the Moo and Falls Festival were all cancelled last year, as were Sunshine Coast's Caloundra Music Festival, Victoria's Coastal Jam and Adelaide 's Vintage Vibes Festival.
Fans were upset to see Spilt Milk cancelled, but were relieved by early signs suggesting it would be back next year.
'I think I'd rather see you guys take a year off than drop a lineup people would be disappointed with. Hopefully you'll come back with a bang next year,' one said.
Another was shocked that 'a festival that sells out every year, can't even go ahead'.

Bianca Censori looks completely different with new look while out with Kanye's kids
Model and architect Bianca Censori debuted a totally different look on an outing with her husband Kanye West's children following Kim Kardashian's strong words Bianca Censori debuted a brand new look as she headed out with Kayne West and Kim Kardashian's children. The model has racked up a reputation for daring outfits, including a fully nude dress at this year's Grammys. However, she stepped out looking barely recognisable as she played step-mum to Kanye's children. It seems Bianca has taken Kanye's ex-wife Kim's requests seriously after being told to cover up around them. She was joined by Saint, Chicago, and Psalm as she showed off her dressed down look in Los Angeles. It comes after photos show Holly Willoughby letting her hair down in white swimsuit on sun soaked holiday. Bianca rocked a long sleeved black top with matching capri trousers and a pair of pointed toe heels in photos seen by t he Metro. The star kept her dark locks down with a blunt fringe as she opted for a modest look. It came as a surprise for Bianca, who usually opts for revealing outfits as she dares to bare all. Kanye shares North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six, with ex-wife Kim. At the Grammy's earlier this year, Bianca truly commanded attention when she shed her black fluffy coat to unveil a daringly sheer mesh slip dress that pretty much nothing to the imagination. The couple's red carpet stunt hit headlines across the world after Kim had expressed concerns about her ex's new wife and her choice of outfits around their kids. 'They had cross words with each other, and the word is they both lost their tempers," an insider said of Kim and Kanye's clash in November. "Kim has let Kanye know she's going to try and withhold his visitation with the kids if Bianca is around dressed" in revealing outfits they added when discussing Bianca's skimpy style choices while on step-mother duty. "It's awful, and Kim's convinced Bianca and Kanye are purposely trying to mess with her," a separate source claimed to In Touch Weekly in October. Bianca's fashion choices are possibly a cause for concern for Kim due to the fact her eldest daughter North, is often seen copying her step-mother's outfits. Earlier this year, the young child seemingly borrowed an item from Bianca's wardrobe as she headed out on a mummy-daughter date night with Kim. In June, it seemed Bianca's social media account was deactivated after she braved the streets of New York in nothing but a candy bra and thong. The Australian model wasn't shy about showing off her figure, donning a racy set which threatened to malfunction. Bianca put on another risqué display in the Big Apple and was seen strutting around the city with husband Kanye in nothing but skimpy black underwear and a see-through top that left very little to the imagination. Just a few days earlier, she left very little to the imagination in a pair of sheer pantyhose and a see-through black fishnet top. Fans had a lot to say about the look as one said: "God, I've just opened the Instagram app to see this." "Sometimes less really isn't more," another joked. Someone else complained: "This girl needs to realise that there's much more to women than showing off every inch of your body in such a vulgar way. Where is the class and decorum? Not a good look."

Katie Davis looks to Frankie Dettori for Shergar Cup advice
The 33-year-old shot to international fame after featuring in the Netflix series 'Race For The Crown' and the multiple US stakes-winning rider is eager to capitalise on any advantage she can gain for her British debut. Dettori, who famously went through a seven-race card at Ascot in 1996 and is now riding in the US, offered his help to Davis when the pair crossed paths at Saratoga and Davis will have him on speed dial. She said: 'My plan is to walk the track at least twice. It was nice to hear from Frankie Dettori because he's riding in Saratoga and he's like 'Katie, when you get your entries out, you better call me'. 'I said 'don't you worry, I'll call you', obviously I'm not that stupid. I'm trying to win a race here! 'I breezed two for Wesley (Ward, trainer) on the grass with Frankie, and I was telling Wesley and Frankie and Wesley's like 'you're gonna have a blast, you have to go'. I go 'I wanted to pick your brain' and he said 'I'm not the right person to pick, you gotta pick Frankie'. 'I'll probably What's App him (Dettori), kind of send the photos, let him analyse it. It'll be really nice. I'm really lucky to have him behind me too in this.' Davis rides in five of the six races in the team competition, with the Andrew Balding-trained Miss Information – winner of the Kensington Palace Stakes at the Royal meeting – seemingly her best chance of victory. She said: 'I'm super excited. I'm not nervous at all, it feels right so I'm just looking for a great opportunity and a great experience, and just go from there. 'It looks tough, but I would like to win a race. It's what I said the first year I went into Saratoga and I won seven – I'm not saying I'm going to win the whole thing, but I'd like to win one, think positive!' Davis will compete as part of the Rest of the World team, joining captain Karis Teetan and Australian Hugh Bowman, who previously led the side to victory in 2007. 'I asked why Hugh isn't the captain because he's won one of them and we all started laughing,' said Davis. 'I said 'we're all gonna have fun. let's enjoy it, bring the best out of each other and kind of see where it goes'. 'There's no pressure, it's nice to have teams so you can kind of follow and talk when you're out there and you're next to each other going full speed.' This year's Shergar Cup has undergone a shake-up, with the Ladies team no longer featuring, leaving the Rest of the World to compete with squads from Great Britain and Ireland, Asia and Europe. Female riders will still take leading roles though, with France's Delphine Santiago in the Europe side, while Joanna Mason and Hollie Doyle will both fly the flag for Great Britain and Ireland. Davis' sister Jackie is also a jockey and after her sibling previously met Doyle, she is particularly keen to make a connection with Britain's most successful female rider. She added: 'My sister Jackie has met her, I think she was overseas one year and she raced my sister, and she said 'you're gonna love her, she's just like us'. I really wanted to meet her and obviously I'm going to, so I hope we hit it off. 'It's always nice that there's people in the industry that you can talk to and it's tough being a women.'
