Rolling Loud Australia returns for the first time since 2019. Lineup led by Gunna, with headliner and full lineup to be announced, Rolling Loud Australia will reach fans in Sydney and Melbourne for back-to-back, one-day festival experiences.

MIAMI, FL, October 21, 2025 – Rolling Loud officially announces its highly anticipated return to Australia. Rolling Loud Australia will touch down for two one-day festivals on March 7, 2026 at Sydney’s Centennial Park and March 8, 2026 at Melbourne’s Flemington
Racecourse.

Rolling Loud confirms that Gunna will perform at both stops of Rolling Loud Australia. The complete lineup, which will showcase international names alongside some of Australia’s most exciting artists, will be announced in the coming weeks. Fans can look forward to the full Rolling Loud experience – epic performances, expansive on-site experiences, and the unmatched energy that make it the ultimate home for hip-hop. Rolling Loud Australia 2026 pre-sale tickets go on-sale Oct 23 at 8AM AEDT here.

“We’re thrilled to finally bring Rolling Loud back to Australia,” say Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, Rolling Loud Co-Founders/Co-CEOs. “The energy from Sydney in 2019 was unforgettable, and this time we’re expanding that experience with shows in both Sydney and Melbourne. Australia has always shown real love for Rolling Loud, and we can’t wait to deliver something special for the fans Down Under.”

Rolling Loud made its historic Australian debut in 2019, bringing the World’s Largest Hip-Hop Festival to Sydney’s iconic Olympic Park. The one-day event sold out in one hour and featured explosive sets from Future, Playboi Carti, Rae Sremmurd, Tyga, Manu Crook$, and an unforgettable surprise performance from a then-rising The Kid LAROI during DJ Scheme’s set.

That landmark edition marked a major step in Rolling Loud’s global expansion, paving the way for future festivals across Europe and Asia. Now, the brand’s highly anticipated return in 2026 will see Rolling Loud back in Sydney and debuting for the first time in Melbourne, produced in conjunction with Primuse Entertainment as the official local partner.

Rolling Loud’s next stop is Mumbai, where the festival will make its highly anticipated India debut on November 22–23. Headlined by Central Cee, Wiz Khalifa, Don Toliver, and Karan Aujla, with performances from Swae Lee, Nav, DIVINE, Hanumankind, Ski Mask The Slump God, Westside Gunn, and more, Rolling Loud India will showcase a powerful mix of international hip-hop stars and Indian artists shaping the genre across the subcontinent.

Earlier this year, Rolling Loud California 2025 delivered one of the defining moments in the brand’s history. From Playboi Carti’s marathon 2.5-hour headlining set just days after releasing I AM MUSIC, to Peso Pluma becoming the first Latin artist to headline a Rolling Loud festival, and A$AP Rocky’s dramatic return to the stage via helicopter — the weekend captured the scale, spectacle, and cultural impact that define Rolling Loud worldwide.

Rolling Loud Australia 2026 is the next in line to make history.

About Rolling Loud:

Founded in 2015 by childhood friends and Miami natives, Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif (9x Billboard Hip-Hop Power Players), Rolling Loud was born out of a flourishing South Florida hip-hop community that the pair cultivated through years of concert promotions. In a time where live hip-hop wasn’t being taken seriously by the pop music machine, Rolling Loud shattered expectations from the jump – prompting expansion at an unprecedented rate from Miami to Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Australia within 5 years and to Portugal, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Toronto, Thailand and India within 10 years. Rightfully named the World’s Largest Hip-Hop Festival, Rolling Loud has evolved into a 360º lifestyle brand admired by fans, artists and brands alike for its authenticity and innovation. More than a festival, Rolling Loud is a cultural force – cultivating hip-hop culture around the world and making history in the process.

About Primuse Entertainment:

Primuse Entertainment is a global live entertainment company with a long-standing track record of delivering world-class concerts, festivals, and touring events across the Asia Pacific. With a vertically integrated approach spanning live entertainment, venue management, ticketing, and marketing, Primuse is committed to crafting unforgettable musical experiences.
