It’s official: Victoria’s regional Pitch Music & Arts Festival returns in 2026 for its ninth edition.
The electronic music fest, held in the gorgeous surroundings of the Grampian Plains, runs over Victoria’s Labour Day long weekend from Friday 6 March to Tuesday 10 March.
The latest incarnation of the annual festival ushers in a new era for Pitch, with a new Pitch Black stage design and the introduction of the Pitch Rock Pool swimming space. Changes also extend to the organisational staff, with the appointment of Tom Supple (Dark Mofo, RISING, Vivid Sydney) as the festival’s new Arts Curator.
The three main stages – Pitch One, Pitch Black and Resident Advisor – all return with state-of-the-art Funktion One sound systems.
While the lineup is yet to drop, the teaser trailer for the festival (watch below) features Charlotte De Witte’s ‘Overdrive’, so there is a fair chance she will be performing at Pitch.
Changing the way punters purchase tickets, organisers have introduced a Register or Reserve ticketing system ahead of the general on-sale. Head to the Pitch Music & Arts Festival website to register for the Pitch pre-sale before 12pm AEST on Tuesday 28 October. Pre-sale tickets will be available from 6pm AEST on Wednesday 29 October, ahead of the general on-sale from 12pm AEST on Thursday 30 October.

There is a range of ticketing options on offer, including two, three and four day passes with camping access, or for those looking to elevate their Pitch experience, there are Premium Camp, Eco Camp, and Glamping packages also up for grabs.
