The Network Is Alive. Good Things Are Here. Welcome To The Good Things Festival 2026 Line-Up

THE HUGE
GOOD THINGS FESTIVAL 2026
LINE-UP IS HERE
In a time of digital chaos and concrete sprawl, the frequencies have locked in and a citadel for heavy and alternative music will emerge once again in 2026. Welcome to the next evolution of Australia’s largest travelling music celebration, with Good Things Festival returning this year for another monumental cycle, armed with a colossal lineup from every sector, spanning culture-shaping legends through to the current defining generation of the alternative scene and emerging artists set to shape the future. Locked in across the East Coast this December, all event dates will once again be 16+ and up. The network is alive, and the architectural soundscape awaits to welcome all generations in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this December.
Leading the charge is nu-metal juggernaut Limp Bizkit, returning to headline following their sold-out 2023 tour and massive global festival runs. Joining them is a stacked tier of scene icons, including pop-punk legends Simple Plan, progressive heavy metal trailblazers Spiritbox, and Australian metalcore powerhouses Polaris fresh off supporting Linkin Park. The bill features exclusive album anniversary sets from Alexisonfire performing Crisis in full and Millencolin delivering Pennybridge Pioneers, alongside the long-awaited Australian return of The All-American Rejects after 17 years, bad-religion punk pioneers Bad Religion, nu-metal veterans P.O.D., and the final Australian farewell performances from industrial metal icons Ministry.
The expansive lineup bridges heavy music's legacy with its vibrant future across multiple subgenres. Australian favorites Grinspoon, Choirboys, Speed, Slowly Slowly, and Headwreck stand alongside global powerhouses like Neck Deep, The Devil Wears Prada, Chad Gray (Mudvayne/HELLYEAH), MXPX, and genre-defying sensation Bilmuri. Rounding out the bill is a diverse, high-energy roster of international and rising acts including All Them Witches, The Black Queen, Future Palace, The Home Team, House of Protection, Ivri, Kami Kehoe, Locked Shut, LØLØ, vianova, and Voice of Baceprot. Good Things Festival 2026 hits Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane this December.
