Australian Music Festivals

Deni Ute Muster has unveiled its 2026 lineup featuring Tones And I, Lee Kernaghan and a stacked bill of Australian and international artists set for Deniliquin.

Here is the official statement about the cancellation of Bluesfest 2026.

After more than three decades as one of Australia's most significant music gatherings, Bluesfest will not return over Easter 2026, the Byron Bay event has been cancelled due to weak ticket sales.

The Red Hot Summer Tour has once again expanded its footprint across Australia, confirming four new dates that will see the festival land in Mornington, Hervey Bay, Hillarys and Sandstone Point. The 2026 run will continue the event's long-standing tradition of delivering a star-studded, all-Australian bill across some of the country's most scenic outdoor venues, and this year's edition is anchored by one of the nation's most revered storytellers, Paul Kelly.

Dark Mofo, Australia's celebrated mid-winter solstice festival, will return to Lutruwita/Tasmania from Thursday 11 June to Monday 22 June 2026, once again transforming Hobart into a city drenched in red light, fire, ritual and sound.
