THE TIGER LILLIES (UK)
The legendary post-punk, death oompah band and cult cabaret superstars The Tiger Lillies make their long-awaited return to Australia with a new concert celebrating the weird, macabre and those that society has abandoned.
ELEPHANT SESSIONS (UK)
Known for their energetic live shows and appearances at Australian festivals such as Bluesfest, Port Fairy Folk Festival and Womadelaide. Off the back of a sold out Australian tour in 2025, the chart-topping band from the Highlands of Scotland bring their fusion of electronic folk music to venues across the country, creating a progressive blend of intricate tunes on mandolin and fiddle, with a bass and drum heavy backline guaranteed to get you moving.
THE MAVIS'S
90s darlings and Ballarat synth-pop sweethearts, The Mavis’s (spearheaded by siblings Matt & Beki Mavis) are back!
Fresh from a run of sold-out shows with TISM, the band are gearing up to release brand new material — their first in years! Expect all the sparkle, sass and singalongs spanning an impressive 30+ year career with classics like Cry, Moon Drone Gold, Naughty Boy, Rollercoaster, Thunder and Lever on the setlist. You’ll Cry if you miss this one!
