St.Jerome's Laneway Festival returns for their 21st summer edition in 2026 and after Brat summer they have nailed the lineup again.
American superstar Chappell Roan heads the lineup with exclusive festival performances.
Chappell Roan represents one of the most striking new voices in contemporary pop, an artist who combines flamboyance and camp with genuine emotional depth. Her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess (2023), situates her as both heir and challenger to the great lineage of theatrical pop performers: Lady Gaga, Madonna and Kate Bush.
Another exclusive to Laneway Festival is Mercury Prize winning band Wolf Alice returning to Laneway Festival for the second time and hot off the release of their new critically acclaimed album The Clearing. Known for their raw energy and cathartic live performances, the four-piece, Ellie Rowsell, Joff Oddie, Theo Ellis, and Joel Amey, have carved out a reputation as one of the most essential guitar bands of the last decade.
Also exclusive to Laneway is British popstar Pinkpantheress, Swedish rappers Yung Lean & Bladee and pop singer-songwriter Role Model
