Wildlands

Overview

If you're in Brisbane and you spend the first day of 2026 catching Dom Dolla, Kid Kudi and Addison Rae — plus Chris Stussy, KETTAMA, Luude, 070 Shake, Balu Brigada, Cassian and more — you'll be starting the year in quite the memorable fashion. Your destination: Wildlands.

Some music festivals spark a fear of missing out, usually thanks to a stacked roster of acts in one set location. Others help solve that feeling. For those in the River City, Wildlands falls into the second category if you've been watching announcements roll in for Beyond The Valley and Lost Paradise. Plenty of the folks on both of those event's bills are now also heading to Queensland.

Wildlands' Sunshine State stop has moved a day from its usual timing — swapping ending one year with starting the next one. Brisbanites can put Thursday, January 1 in their diaries, then, with Brisbane Showgrounds playing host to the fest. The change of date was made to ensure that all headliners could hit the stage in peak slots.

Channel Tres, Fcukers, Miss Kaninna, NOTION and sim0ne are just some of the other names on the lineup, with everyone on the bill set to benefit from new stage designs. One example: a new 360-degree in-the-round stage with raised dance floors.
