SYDNEY/MELBOURNE—After a six-year hiatus, Rolling Loud is making its much-anticipated return to Australia with a star-studded lineup for 2026. The festival will feature a pair of single-day events in Sydney and Melbourne, headlined by Gunna, Ken Carson, and Sexyy Red.
The iconic hip-hop festival will take over Sydney’s Centennial Park on Saturday, March 7, and Melbourne’s Flemington Racecourse on Sunday, March 8. The stacked bill of international artists includes Tyga, Swae Lee, Lil Tjay, NLE Choppa, Quavo, and Ski Mask the Slump God.
In addition to the global heavyweights, Rolling Loud will also celebrate the vibrant local music scene. Dedicated stages in each city will feature Australian and New Zealand talent, including Hooligan Hefs, Youngn Lipz, Day1, and Amarni.
Excitement for the festival’s return is high, with organizers confirming that presale tickets sold out in under 24 hours. General admission tickets are now available and selling quickly on the official Rolling Loud Australia website, so fans are encouraged to purchase their passes soon.
