Yours & Owls Festival is coming back in 2026!

Organisers have revealed the annual two-day music festival returns over the NSW Labour Day long weekend in Wollongong on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October.

No lineup has been announced, but if last year’s event was anything to go by, expect a ripsnorter featuring a slew of Aussie acts and several massive international headliners.

Topping the bill of the 2025 event was American rapper Denzel Curry, who is in the country later this year for BASSINTHEGRASS, Ireland post-punkers Fontaines D.C., UK indie favs The Kooks and ‘90s pop rockers Goo Goo Dolls.

Other artists who performed included JPEGMAFIA, The Veronicas, Battlesnake, Becca Hatch, Courteeners, The Dreggs, POND, The Jungle Giants and more.
