A3 Festival 2026 Lineup.jpg

A3 Festival has officially unveiled its 2026 lineup, confirming a return to Lardner Park, Victoria from 27th–30th November 2026. Now entering its third year, the independently built Australian electronic music festival 2026 edition has quickly become one of the country's most culturally significant events, with consecutive sold-out editions and a ballot system already drawing unprecedented demand. Tickets go on sale Wednesday 20th May at 12PM, with Ballot Stage One already sold out.

The 2026 programme is headlined by a genuinely striking international cast. Nina Kraviz brings her singular global influence to the main stage, while Kerri Chandler makes a long-awaited return to Australia for the first time in nearly a decade. Skin On Skin appears for his first Australian camping festival since 2022, and UK breakouts Max Dean, Luke Dean and Morgan Seatree arrive on the back of massive international momentum. VTSS, sim0ne, LF System, Rene Wise and STÜM round out a deep and carefully curated bill spanning techno, house, trance and club music in all its current forms.

Beyond the music, A3 2026 expands its commitment to spatial design and immersive art, with Studio John Fish returning to oversee lighting and stage direction across all four environments, including the Main, Hangar, Forest and Pavilion stages. Large-scale installations from REELIZE.STUDIO, Lucas Gauci, Merindah-Gunya and Rose Staff will activate the broader festival grounds, reinforcing A3's reputation as a complete cultural environment rather than a standard festival format.

Presented by Novel, A3 2026 approaches its third edition with expanded infrastructure and refined environmental design while maintaining the intimacy and community atmosphere that defined its emergence. The full programme also includes Andre Zimmer, ANNĒ, Blasha & Allatt, JakoJako, Philippa Pacho, SHDW and many more across the weekend. For those yet to register, the ballot is open now and interest is expected to move fast.

A3 Festival's 2026 edition takes place from 27th - 30th November at Lardner Park, Victoria, with tickets on sale Wednesday 20th May at 12PM.

A3 Festival has officially confirmed its return for 2026, announcing that its third edition will take place from 27th to 30th November at Lardner Park in Victoria. As one of the most exciting Australian music festivals of 2026, the reveal arrived with a clear sense of ambition, themed around the phrase "Where You Need To Be" and carrying the energy of a festival that has grown quickly since its debut in 2024.

The teaser campaign made a striking creative choice, pairing the announcement with Skin On Skin's track 'Where You Need To Be' as its soundtrack. It's a bold nod to the Australian act and sets a euphoric, emotionally charged tone for what A3 is building towards in 2026. A full lineup is yet to be unveiled, with the festival promising that announcement is coming soon.

For fans keen to secure tickets ahead of the crowd, a ballot is now open for early access to the on-sale period. Those who enter the ballot will have the opportunity to purchase tickets from Monday, 11th May at 9:00 AM, giving them a head start before general availability opens up.

With each year, A3 Festival has carved out a stronger identity in Australia's live music calendar. Lardner Park provides an expansive regional setting that suits the festival's growing scale, and with the lineup still under wraps, anticipation is already building for what could be their most compelling year yet.
