Presented by Untitled Group, Beyond The Valley and triple j, Wildlands Festival has unveiled its lineup for 2026, promising a day of world-class performances and unforgettable summer energy.

Headlining this year’s events in Brisbane and Perth are global dance music powerhouse Dom Dolla, songwriter, actress and cultural phenomenon Addison Rae and alternative hip-hop visionary Kid Cudi.

This year’s colossal roster also features Chris Stussy, KETTAMA, Luude, 070 Shake, Balu Brigada, Cassian, Channel Tres, Fcukers, Miss Kaninna, NOTION, sim0ne, and more, bringing together global pop icons, electronic powerhouses, and the hottest rising acts.

Dom Dolla joins the Wildlands lineup with huge momentum following a record-breaking year that has seen him headline two sold-out Madison Square Garden shows, ignite crowds at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Miami, and launched a 10-week Hï Ibiza residency. With over a Billion streams, a Grammy nomination, three ARIA Awards, and hits like “Dreamin’” (feat. Daya), “Forever” (with Kid Cudi), plus his cinematic debut “No Room For A Saint” from the F1: The Movie soundtrack, he continues to cement his place as one of the world’s most in-demand electronic artists. After the announcement of his biggest-ever Australian headline show at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium this December, Dom Dolla is set to deliver a performance that will undoubtedly go down as one of the festival’s most iconic moments.

Fresh off the release of her acclaimed debut album Addison, delivering viral hits “Diet Pepsi,” “Headphones On”, “Aquamarine”, and “Fame Is A Gun”, songwriter, actress and cultural phenomenon Addison Rae has transformed from viral video sensation to boundary-pushing pop artist. Addison has amassed over 88 million followers on TikTok, with over 5.8 billion likes, and 34 million followers on Instagram. The pop phenomenon’s artistry and undeniable charisma have positioned her as one of the defining voices and faces of her generation. Addison Rae will take to the Wildlands stage, bringing her hypnotic blend of nostalgia and innovation to Brisbane and Perth.

Making his first Australian appearance in over a decade, Kid Cudi joins the Wildlands stage as one of alternative hip-hop’s most visionary forces. From his breakout hit “Day ‘n’ Nite” to the genre-defining Man on the Moon trilogy, Cudi’s raw, introspective storytelling has inspired a generation. With over 22 million units sold, multiple Grammy wins, and a global reputation as a trailblazer, his return will be a landmark moment for Australian fans.

A driving force in global house music, Chris Stussy celebrates five years of his acclaimed label Up The Stuss in 2025, fresh off a sold-out London debut for his USS event series and a peak-time Coachella Yuma set. With #1 Beatport releases, standout remixes for Moby and Todd Terry, and festival appearances from Lowlands to Creamfields, Stussy’s deep, minimal, and precision-crafted sound will make his Wildlands debut one to remember.

Genre-bending and emotionally charged, 070 Shake has carved a unique path across emo-rap, atmospheric R&B, and cinematic alt-pop. Off the back of her latest album Petrichor, she has received great acclaim for her immersive, genre-defying vision. After a string of acclaimed European festival performances in 2025, she’s set to deliver an unforgettable Wildlands debut.

KETTAMA, whose track ‘Pretty Green Eyes’ (Sunset Ibiza Mix) featured in the second video released across Wildlands socials earlier in the week, will unleash his hard-hitting house sound, with a BBC Radio 1 Dance Residency coming in 2025 and his “It Gets Better (Forever Mix)” making big waves on charts around the world. Grammy-winning producer Cassian, known for collaborations with RÜFÜS DU SOL, Anyma, and Dom Dolla, brings his genre-defining melodic house and techno mastery to the lineup.

Exploding from his Tasmanian roots into global drum and bass fame, Luude broke through with back-to-back multi-platinum hits “Down Under” and “Big City Life”, followed by charting singles “TMO” with Bru-C and “Oh My”. An ARIA Award winner and one of the highest-selling D&B artists of the last decade, he has launched his own imprint No Instruction while touring relentlessly across the world’s biggest stages.

A rising force in UK bass, NOTION blends garage, bassline, jungle and house into high-energy sets that hit with raw energy. Off the back of his viral remix of Chrystal’s “The Days”, which stormed international charts and lit up TikTok, he has cemented himself as one of electronic music’s most exciting names and an unmissable addition to the Wildlands lineup.

sim0ne adds her blend of house and techno sounds alongside her signature euphoric energy while New Zealand-born brothers and latest NME cover stars Balu Brigada bring their unmistakable genre. Miss Kaninna brings a fierce, unapologetic presence that has marked her as one of Australia’s most exciting new live performers, with SOTA bringing his signature drum and bass sounds to the lineup.

Also joining the lineup are a string of exciting live acts and DJs including Jazzy, ZULAN, TEED, Willo, RONA., Waxx Off, Mincy, Mowgli May, and more.

For the first time ever, Wildlands Brisbane will take over Brisbane Showgrounds on New Year’s Day, the perfect way to start 2026. Wildlands Perth will follow on January 3rd, returning to its iconic home at Arena Joondalup. Both events will feature reimagined stage designs, including an all-new 360° ‘in the round’ stage with a four-point sound system and raised dance floors, plus updated site layouts for an even more immersive experience.
