Missed out on Beyond the Valley tickets? Not sure what to do for New Year’s? A massive new music festival is coming to Melbourne, and will take over Sidney Myer Music Bowl and the surrounding gardens for two days and two nights. At New Year’s at the Bowl, you can look forward to exciting entertainment across multiple stages and genres. Keep the energy pumping with a headline act from global electronic sensation Underworld on New Year’s Eve, or spend New Year’s Day with Maribou State and Berlioz. You can choose to celebrate on both days, or just one if it suits you.

New Year’s at the Bowl
Ring in the new year with a mix of international artists and local legends. Look forward to a NYE countdown set from Carl Cox, as well as performances from Confidence Man, Joy Crookes, Santigold, Marc Rebillet, Glass Beams and more.
“We’re excited to launch New Year’s at the Bowl – two days of great music, ranging from a high-energy end to the year, to a relaxing, hopefully sun-drenched kick off for 2026,” said promoter Mike Ross. “We hope the festival will grow into a celebration that feels unique to Naarm, with a wide-ranging musical program, great local acts and iconic location all coming together to reflect the tastes and spirit of the city, with a few surprises still to be revealed.”
