CORE Melbourne 2026 Lineup.jpg

Tomorrowland's globally celebrated CORE Festival has officially revealed its debut Australian lineup, with CORE Melbourne set to take place on Saturday 28th November, 2026 at Flemington Racecourse. Running from 2:00pm to 11:00pm AEST and open to attendees aged 18 and over, the event touches down in the open-air Nursery precinct of one of Melbourne's most iconic venues, marking CORE's arrival on its fifth continent and its most geographically ambitious edition to date. Pre-sale registration is now closed, with pre-sale tickets going live at 9:00am AEST on Friday 5th June, 2026, followed by a general sale opening Thursday 11th June, 2026.

The lineup is headlined by a landmark back-to-back set from Melbourne-loved DJ Mall Grab and UK electronic powerhouse Effy, joined on the mainstage by Honey Dijon, Moodymann, TSHA, and Dino Lenny. Underground devotees will be well served by the returning Mano stage, making only its second-ever appearance at a CORE event following its Los Angeles debut. That stage features Kobosil, Daria Kolosova, HiTMiLØW, Lola Voss b2b Billy Currie, Fumi, and a particularly meaningful pairing in Noise Mafia b2b Peterblue, two Colombian artists deeply connected to the scene CORE has championed for years.

CORE Melbourne has already generated more pre-event interest than any previous edition worldwide, signalling extraordinary demand from Australian electronic music fans. Ticketing is handled exclusively through Humanitix, an Australian non-profit platform that donates 100 per cent of booking fee profits to charitable education programmes for disadvantaged children, a partnership that reflects CORE's broader commitment to community and cultural impact.

Having already established editions across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, CORE Festival's Melbourne chapter represents a landmark moment in the brand's international evolution. With a carefully assembled bill spanning house, techno, and leftfield electronic sounds, and a venue that offers an immersive open-air atmosphere, CORE Melbourne looks set to deliver the kind of singular festival experience that has earned the event its devoted global following.
