Australia’s Beyond The Valley has revealed the lineup for its 11th edition, bringing together some of the biggest names in electronic music, hip-hop, pop and live performance for its return to Barunah Plains.
Following a sold-out edition last year, with tickets selling out in under an hour, the festival will return from 28 December through 1 January, marking the beginning of its second decade as one of Australia’s biggest multi-day music events.
Leading the 2026/27 lineup is global dance music star John Summit, who will take over the festival’s iconic New Year’s Eve countdown moment. The lineup also features an exclusive Australian appearance from Black Eyed Peas, alongside Dutch rave powerhouse KI/KI and UK grime pioneer Skepta, who returns to Beyond The Valley for the first time since the 2019/20 edition.
Other major names joining the lineup include Ocean Alley, Overmono, Disco Lines, Nia Archives, Armand Van Helden, The Veronicas, Vince Staples, Frost Children, SPFDJ, Jayda G, salute, southstar, Odd Mob, Dean Turnley and many more.
Fresh from the release of his latest album CTRL ESCAPE and a headline performance at Tomorrowland 2026, John Summit arrives at Beyond The Valley as one of the biggest names in contemporary dance music. The DJ, producer and label owner has surpassed one billion global streams, achieved multiple chart successes and continues to expand his influence across the international electronic scene.
His appearance at Barunah Plains will mark a major festival moment as he leads the countdown into 2027.
Black Eyed Peas will also make a special Australian exclusive appearance. The Los Angeles group, formed in 1995, has spent decades blending hip-hop, pop, electro and Latin influences into some of the most recognisable tracks of the 21st century, including “Where Is The Love?”, “Boom Boom Pow” and “I Gotta Feeling”.
Dutch DJ and producer KI/KI continues her rise as one of electronic music’s most exciting artists. Known for her connection to rave culture and a unique blend of 90s influences with modern club energy, she will return to Barunah Plains for a special three-hour set.
Skepta will also make his return to Beyond The Valley, bringing his pioneering grime sound back to the festival. The Tottenham-born artist has played a defining role in UK rap culture and continues to push boundaries through music, collaborations and creative projects.
The festival lineup also highlights some of the strongest names across house, techno and underground electronic music. House legend Armand Van Helden joins the program alongside UK duo Overmono, viral house producer Disco Lines, Grammy-nominated artist Jayda G, Job Jobse, Boys Noize, Anetha, Hamdi, salute, SPFDJ, Hannah Laing, Ewan McVicar, Funk Tribu and many more.
Australian artists will also play a major role, with Ocean Alley making their Beyond The Valley debut following the success of their album Love Balloon, while The Veronicas return with a catalogue of iconic pop hits including “Untouched”, “4ever” and “Hook Me Up”. The festival will also welcome British jungle artist Nia Archives for her first Australian live show following the release of her acclaimed album Emotional Junglist.
Beyond The Valley continues to expand beyond music, with The Lounge Room returning with a program of live podcasts, conversations and interactive experiences. Festival-goers can expect comedy, discussions, creative workshops, live recordings and community-focused events throughout the weekend.
The festival’s three main stages will return, including The Valley Stage, Dance Dome and Dr Dan’s, alongside new and returning experiences such as The Woods, Bunnings, Salomon Base Camp, POOF DOOF’s Cirque Du Slay, The Palms Pool House, The Sanctuary and The Valley Club.
Commenting on the festival’s return, Nicholas Greco, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Untitled Group, said:
“Festivals matter more than ever. They give people a place to belong, and a place to fall in love with music – and it’s a privilege to play a part in that through BTV. We’re so excited to be delivering such an incredible lineup to our BTV community, and to bring in the new year with you all again.”
Beyond The Valley 2026/27 will take place from 28 December to 1 January at Barunah Plains, Australia.
