On the international front, the 2026 bill pulls together some serious weight. UK trance stalwart John 00 Fleming headlines alongside Amsterdam-based producer Patrice Bäumel, Systematic Recordings founder Marc Romboy, and Israeli progressive psytrance producer Freedom Fighters. They’re joined by Tim Green, Electrypnose, D-Nox, Pavel Petrov, Dela Moon, Bayawaka, Golanski, Luis M, One Million Toys and Sammy Legs, with a special guest set from EEEMUS adding further intrigue.
Australia’s underground electronic scene features prominently across the program. Local acts include GMJ & Matter, Kasey Taylor, Shadow FX, Kodiak Kid, Butterz, Liam Sieker, Platypuss, Christopher Brooks, Nikki Sig, Funkform, Jedidiah, Mora, Haber, Handsdown, Twisted Sibling and Unknown Concept, alongside a broad roster of emerging and established names. Curated showcases from five collectives round out the bill: Coco Poco Loco, Homebass, Love Camp, Weapon Records, and Morning After, with the latter marking its 10-year celebration at the festival.
The 2026 edition also expands beyond music, with the festival broadening its wellbeing and arts programming alongside new infrastructure and community-focused initiatives. Camping comes included with all admission tickets, while glamping bell tents, pre-pitched options and on-site cabins are available for anyone after a bit more comfort. A return shuttle bus from Southern Cross Station is on offer for those without a car.
First release admission tickets are on sale now from $363, with group packages starting at $1,386 for four people. Flexible weekly and monthly payment plans are available through the festival’s Humanitix ticketing page.
