Queenscliff Music Festival has revealed the second round of artists joining the 2026 edition of the long-running Victorian festival.
Taking over Wadawurrung Country in the historic Victorian seaside town of Queenscliff from Friday 27 to Sunday 29 November, the new additions include ARIA Award winner Matt Corby, London siblings Kitty Daisy & Lewis, You Am I frontman and all-round good guy Tim Rogers, funk outfit The Bamboos and Papua New Guinean, Gunditjmara and Torres Strait Islander Kaiit.
They join an already stacked bill that includes ARIA Award-winning rapper and singer Baker Boy, dreamy folk duo The Maes, 2019 Eurovision contestant Kate Miller-Heidke, soulful songwriter Meg Mac, blues guitarist and singer Mia Dyson, indie darlings Lime Cordiale, legendary Peter Garrett performing with the Alter Egos and ‘90s icon Magic Dirt all performing.
“Looking at this lineup now, it's hard not to get excited. It's shaping up to be one of those weekends where you'll get to catch an act you love, leave with a new favourite and create fond memories,” said Queenscliff Music Festival Director Claire Stickland.
“The best festival memories are rarely the ones you plan for, they're the artist you stumble across, the song you didn't know you'd love, the people you shared it with. This announcement is full of those possibilities.”
Tickets are on sale now via qmf.net.au.
