Hayu FanFest

Overview

Reality TV superfans take note: Hayu is bringing its FanFest to Sydney in 2026. Celebrating the streamer's tenth anniversary — that's a lot of Real Housewives episodes — this massive event will serve up an in-person reality TV experience like no other on Saturday, August 15, 2026.

Whether you're a long-standing diehard or a relative newcomer to the reality scene, Hayu FanFest is all about creating a fan-focused OTT experience. Think on-stage panel discussions and interviews alongside meet-and-greets, photo ops, brand activations and exclusive merch.

"Our Aussie fans show us love every day, and we're beyond excited to bring them the FanFest magic in Sydney — a full-throttle, high-energy celebration packed with big moments, big personalities and the reality stars they are obsessed with," says Hayu SVP Marketing, Olga Puzanova.

With the lineup of celebs making the trip to Sydney set to be announced in the near future, there's still time to catch up on all Hayu's most binge-worthy shows before they touch down. Fingers crossed for Heather Gay or Captain Lee Rosbach, but only time will tell.
