GLITCH Festival returns to Melbourne this April, with the internationally acclaimed Maltese event locking in a one night takeover on Saturday, 18th April, 2026 at PICA. Presented by Untitled Group, the boundary pushing electronic brand is set to deliver another immersive club experience following its successful Australian debut in 2025.

The 2026 lineup blends global tastemakers with rising local talent. DJ AYA represents Melbourne with hypnotic melodic techno, while Berlin based Funk Tribu brings trance infused club energy shaped by appearances at Tomorrowland and EDC Las Vegas. Germany’s Lammer adds genre bending techno, house and breakbeat selections, and US favourite MIJA delivers bass driven melodic house. Rounding out the bill are Mikalah Watego and Upper90, showcasing Melbourne’s underground edge with emotive grooves and high intensity rave sounds.

Founded in Malta, GLITCH has become one of Europe’s most respected electronic music festivals, earning spots in DJ Mag’s Top 100 Festivals list for 2024 and 2025. Past lineups have featured Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, Marcel Dettmann, Carl Craig, I Hate Models, Mall Grab, Honey Dijon and KI KI, reinforcing its global reputation for forward thinking programming.

Pre sale registration is now open, with presale tickets available from 12pm AEDT Thursday, 12th February, 2026, followed by general public tickets at 12pm AEDT Friday, 13th February, 2026. For one night only, GLITCH Australia promises a seamless fusion of hypnotic grooves, immersive production and cutting edge electronic music in the heart of Melbourne.
