John Summit, Black Eyed Peas, Skepta & More Headline Beyond the Valley

Beyond The Valley continues to reign supreme as Australia's best New Year's Eve festival, dropping an incredible lineup for this year's event.

Following last year's 11th edition, which sold out in under an hour, Beyond The Valley returns to the stunning Barunah Plains from Monday 28 December 2026 to Friday 1 January 2027 for four nights of live music.

This year's headliners include global dance music powerhouse John Summit, who takes on the festival's most coveted moment, the New Year's Eve countdown; multi-platinum pop rap group Black Eyed Peas, Dutch rave royalty KI/KI and British grime pioneer Skepta.

Also performing across the festival are Ocean Alley, Overmono, Disco Lines, Nia Archives, Armand Van Helden, The Veronicas, Vince Staples, Frost Children, SPFDJ, Jayda G, salute, southstar, Odd Mob, Dean Turnley and more.

Speaking about this year's event, Nicholas Greco, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Untitled Group, said, "Festivals matter more than ever. They give people a place to belong, and a place to fall in love with music - and it's a privilege to play a part in that through BTV. We're so excited to be delivering such an incredible lineup to our BTV community, and to bring in the new year with you all again."

Minister for Tourism Natalie Suleyman added, "The Victorian Government is proud to back Beyond the Valley through the Regional Events Fund. Events like this provide another fantastic reason for visitors to experience the Bellarine and Greater Geelong region. So not only will it be an incredible festival, but it will help fill our hotels, cafes and small businesses with visitors."

The Daily Aus pre-sale begins 10am AEST Tuesday 4 August, followed by the Official pre-sale at 6pm AEST Thursday 6 August. General on sale begins 12pm AEST Friday 7 August. Ticketing information is available at beyondthevalley.com.au.
