Marksenfest Drops Epic 2026 Lineup

Marksenfest, Adelaide's largest student-organised music festival, returns on Saturday 17 October for what promises to be an epic day of live music.

This year's headliner is Melbourne rock ensemble Playlunch, fresh from ripping up stages across North America and Europe.

The self-described "bogan funk" outfit will be joined on the day by emerging local inide boy band PASH, four-piece alternative rock group Even Hannah, genre-bending five-piece Caressa, indie soul act Full Cream and guitar-forward indie band Broken Waves.

The annual music and arts festival takes place in the beautiful surrounds of St Mark's College in North Adelaide and regularly attracts more than 1,300 people.

Along with the awesome all-Aussie lineup, there will be an array of premium beer, cider and other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages on offer, as well as a variety of food trucks and sideshow activities.

Early bird tickets are on sale now for just $100, which gets you unlimited food and drinks throughout the day from 12pm to 6pm. Grab yours at eventbrite.com.au.
