Good Things Festival To Return in 2026

“See you in 2026, right? We’re counting the days already.”

After a hugely successful Good Things 2025, organisers have revealed the festival will return in 2026.

Sending an email to everyone who purchased tickets to this year’s festival, Good Things thanked punters and declared they will be back bigger and better in 2026.

“What an amazing weekend of events that was! We are so happy to have been able to deliver another year of Good Things to the best music community in Australia, hands down,” the email read.

“Thank you for being a part of the extended GT family, and for supporting live music… We will be back in 2026 and look forward to welcoming you again next year!”

They even hinted at the festival’s return in an Instagram post celebrating the final day of the festival in Brisbane, writing, “See you in 2026, right? We’re counting the days already.”

Good Things 2025 was held at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne, Sydney Showground in Sydney and Brisbane Showgrounds in Brisbane with an absolutely stacked lineup headlined by prog rock icons TOOL, who performed a mesmerising 90-minute set, alternative greats Weezer and ‘90s alt-rock favs Garbage, who created a little controversy thanks to Shirley Manson’s hatred of beach balls.

The lineup also featured punk acts All Time Low and New Found Glory, metalcore heroes Make Them Suffer, heavy metal legends Machine Head, Swedish hardcore greats Refused and more.

In our review of the festival, we wrote that Good Things 2025 “delivered standout sets from Garbage, Weezer and TOOL on a genre-spanning day of rock, punk and metal, cementing its position as the country’s premium heavy festival.”
