IT may be all about the Harlem Shake at the moment, but Gangnam Style had a return to form at Future Music festival in Sydney yesterday.

Tens of thousands of punters packed into Randwick Racecourse yesterday to see the Psy star perform the iconic dance in the flesh.

Despite the K-Pop star still only having one well-known song, his performance was dubbed the gig of the day by many.

Rita Ora, The Temper Trap, Stone Roses, The Prodigy, Dizzee Rascal, Bloc Party, Fun, Rudimental and Azealia Banks were also among the star-studded line-up who performed to over 50,000 fans.

Wedged in between the two main stages, the festival First Class played host to a slew of celebrities and music industry types.

It was the place to be seen, with uninterrupted views of all the big acts and offered the best spot of the festival for people-watching.

Lil Jon, Samara Weaving, Rhiannon Fish, Reece Mastin, Ryan "Fitzy" Fitzgerald, Tom Williams, Tyler Atkins, Nathan Jolliffe, Hugh Sheridan and Isabelle Cornish were among some of the big names to call the First Class lounge home for the day.

Elsewhere at the festival, side stages such as the Strongbow summer foam party offered festival-goers new and interesting places to mosh.

From early on in the day music-lovers were getting messy in a foam pit that ended up resembling a giant bubble bath by the end.

The Jack Daniels barrel house also played host to acts such as Rudimental, Van She and Bloc Party front-man Kele Okereke who took to the decks.

Punters who decided to forgo the main stages were delighted with an alternative, more intimate music experience.

The festival hits Melbourne today and Adelaide on Monday after touring Brisbane and Perth last weekend.
