After a hugely successful inaugural event last year, Hyde & Seek Street Festival returns to Rhino Room on Saturday 12 December.

Presented by Hometown Sounds, Rhino Room and Lowlife, this year's bill features a diverse mix of local and interstate acts performing across two indoor stages at Lowlife Bar and Rhino Room and an outdoor stage on Hyde Street.

Headlining Hyde & Seek Street Festival 2026 are Fluid Druids, who are also launching their new album Pareidolia.

They will be joined by four bands from across the border: rock and rollers Stimpies (VIC), psych-rock outfit Magic Machine (NSW), alt-rock group Platonic Sex (NSW) and indie rockers Divers (VIC).

The rest of the local lineup includes Ethanol Blend, Placement, The Genevieves, The Dainty Morsels, TOWNHOUSE, Thunderspeaks, Night Rites, Rosie & the Posies, Loopole, Ebop, The Shadow Ministers and Ledfly.

It's not just great music, with food trucks, outdoor bands and merch tents set up on the day.

Tickets are on sale now at humanitix.com.
