Presented by Untitled Group, Beyond The Valley and triple j, the iconic single-day event is back to light up Brisbane on New Year’s Day 2026, before heading west to Perth on 3 January.
This marks a new era for Wildlands in Queensland, with the festival swapping its traditional New Year’s Eve slot for a fresh New Year’s Day celebration. The change means every headliner will take centre stage in prime time, setting the tone for the year ahead with world-class performances and an atmosphere like no other.
The teaser video has already set the internet buzzing. Soundtracked by Luude’s summer anthem Fun in The Sun, it captures the Wildlands spirit of freedom and fun – dogs breaking free on their walk to run wild, charging towards the festival with the same fearless energy fans know and love.
As always, Wildlands promises a stellar mix of electronic, hip hop and indie sounds, bringing together global icons and breakthrough artists. Past lineups have included heavy-hitters like Tyler, The Creator, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Peggy Gou, Central Cee, FISHER, Diplo, BICEP, Becky Hill and Chase & Status, and 2026 is shaping up to raise the bar once again.
Festival-goers can also look forward to reimagined stage designs and updated layouts, including an all-new 360-degree ‘in the round’ stage with raised dance floors and a powerful four-point sound system, creating a fully immersive experience. For those chasing the VIP treatment, the Casamigos House of Friends pass offers exclusive viewing areas, bars, express entry, private amenities, WiFi, charging stations and more.
With flexible payment options, Zip Pay, PayPal Pay and the new Ticket Request system, securing your spot at Wildlands has never been easier.
The countdown to Brisbane’s ultimate summer festival is officially on. Gather your crew, plan your first big celebration of 2026 and be part of the Wildlands experience everyone will be talking about.
