Hypersonic Festival has officially revealed its full 2026 lineup, and it is shaping up to be a landmark moment for Australian electronic music. Presented by Symbiotic and Hardware, the second-ever edition of the festival will span two massive outdoor events across Melbourne Showground on Friday, 20th November, 2026, and Royal Randwick Racecourse in Sydney on Saturday, 21st November, 2026, with MC Stretch, the legendary voice of Tomorrowland and Stereosonic, stepping in as host across both dates.

Headlining the 2026 edition is none other than trance icon Armin van Buuren, one of electronic music's most enduring and beloved performers, whose euphoric mainstage sets have captivated global audiences for decades. Joining him is Dutch powerhouse duo W&W, known for explosive high-energy performances and festival-defining anthems, alongside genre-spanning act Showtek, whose hard-hitting EDM and electro-house legacy stretches back to the early 2000s. Rounding out the top billing are Australian trumpet-wielding showman Timmy Trumpet and celebrated liquid drum and bass duo Hybrid Minds, bringing emotional depth and melodic power to the bill.

Spanning EDM, trance, techno, drum and bass, dubstep, hardstyle, tech-house and dance pop across multiple stages, Hypersonic 2026 promises next-level production, immersive environments and a carefully curated experience that spans everything from euphoric mainstage moments to deeper underground sounds. Organisers have described this as the most ambitious chapter in the festival's short but already impressive history.

Tickets are expected to move fast, with presale registration already open ahead of the presale going live at 12pm AEST on Tuesday, 25th August, 2026, and general public tickets following at 12pm AEST on Wednesday, 26th August, 2026. With a world-class lineup, two iconic outdoor venues and a multi-genre program built for dance music lovers of every stripe, Hypersonic 2026 is firmly one of the must-attend events on Australia's summer festival calendar.
