The group released their 2020 record, Forever In Bloom, as 2016’s “Young” went viral for the first of several times on TikTok. The song has now amassed over 275 million streams and continues to break its own streaming records each week.  To celebrate their arrival home to Newcastle, Vacations announced their first headlining Australian tour in over three years.
