\"\"<\/a>In a time of digital chaos and concrete sprawl, the frequencies have locked in and a citadel for heavy and alternative music will emerge once again in 2026. Welcome to the next evolution of Australia\u2019s largest travelling music celebration, with\u00a0Good Things Festival\u00a0<\/strong>returning this year for another monumental cycle, armed with a colossal lineup from every sector, spanning culture-shaping legends through to the current defining generation of the alternative scene and emerging artists set to shape the future. Locked in across the East Coast this December, all event dates will once again be 16+ and up. The network is alive, and the architectural soundscape awaits to welcome all generations in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this December.<\/p>\n

Leading the primary frequency for Good Things Festival in 2026,\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT<\/strong>\u2019s imprint on nu metal and alternative culture has generated an enduring and towering reputation throughout the band\u2019s 30+ year career. As one of the major pioneers of nu metal, and one of the most successful bands in the scene of all time,\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT<\/strong>\u2019s signature collision of rap rock, grooves, searing riffs, angsty themes and larger than life performances has transcended the group from the late 90s breeding ground of MTV and teenage frustrations into enamouring a multi-generational fanbase with high octane party anthems and entertaining chaos decades since their formation. Exploding out of the gates with their debut full-length album, 1997\u2019s\u00a0Three Dollar Bill, Y\u2019all<\/em>,\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT<\/strong>\u2019s sophomore 1999 album\u00a0Significant Other\u00a0<\/em>reached #1 on the US Billboard 200, ticked off two GRAMMY Award Nominations, was certified 7 x Platinum, and spawned some of the band\u2019s perennially adored singles, including\u00a0Break Stuff\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Nookie<\/em>. Now with six studio albums under their belts, including 2000\u2019s\u00a0Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water\u00a0<\/em>which set the record for the fastest-selling rock album of all time, and their most recent full-length venture, 2021\u2019s\u00a0STILL SUCKS<\/em>,\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT<\/strong>\u00a0continue to blitz streaming charts to this very day, sell out international tours and headline powerhouse global festivals, including Download Festival earlier this year.\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT<\/strong>\u00a0will make their return to Good Things Festival in 2026 as headliners following their unforgettable performances at the 2023 edition and selling out their headline sideshows in Brisbane and Melbourne. Believe the hype, there\u2019s nothing quite like a\u00a0LIMP BIZKIT\u00a0<\/strong>live show, and these will be monolithic performances to truly rattle the mainframe.<\/p>\n

As one of the most culturally and commercially successful bands in rock,\u00a0SIMPLE PLAN<\/strong>\u00a0have spent over two decades cultivating and evolving their status as pop punk legends. Now in command of over 10 billion streams worldwide, almost 2 billion views on YouTube, and an inescapable social media presence that bridges their longtime fans with a whole new generation,\u00a0SIMPLE PLAN\u00a0<\/strong>have never been a band content to rest on their laurels. The group\u2019s multi-platinum 2002 album\u00a0No Pads, No Helmets\u2026Just Balls<\/em>\u00a0introduced the world to smash singles like\u00a0I\u2019d Do Anything<\/em>,\u00a0I\u2019m Just A Kid<\/em>,\u00a0Addicted<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Perfect<\/em>, while later hits spanning\u00a0Welcome To My Life<\/em>,\u00a0Summer Paradise<\/em>,\u00a0Untitled (How Could This Happen To Me?)\u00a0<\/em>and more catapulted the Montreal-hailing quartet onto the main stages of Vans Warped Tour and When We Were Young, along with performances at the 2010 Winter Olympics, worldwide amphitheatre and arena tours with some of the scene\u2019s biggest names, and massive headline treks along the way. Famous for their buoyant performances laden with pop punk anthems and infectious enthusiasm,\u00a0SIMPLE PLAN\u00a0<\/strong>have also raised more than $3 million through their Simple Plan Foundation over the years. Recently celebrating their 25th anniversary in 2025, including a co-headline run with The Offspring down under,\u00a0SIMPLE PLAN<\/strong>\u00a0will once again wow Good Things Festival crowds in 2026 after their mesmerising appearances at the event in 2019.<\/p>\n

The sonic equivalent of capturing lightning in a bottle, Canada\u2019s\u00a0SPIRITBOX<\/strong>\u00a0solidified themselves as a household name in 2020 via their blistering breakout single\u00a0Holy Roller<\/em>. Instantly capturing attention and exploding into a meteoric rise, the progressive heavy metal mainstays have notably never plateaued along the way, exceeding every expectation in 2021 with the release of their debut studio album\u00a0Eternal Blue<\/em>, which debuted at #13 on the US Billboard 200, and ultimately rewrote the genre\u2019s playbook in the process. With three GRAMMY Award nominations under their belts for Best Metal Performance, including for\u00a0Jaded<\/em>\u00a0in 2024,\u00a0Cellar Door<\/em>\u00a0in 2025 and\u00a0Soft Spine<\/em>\u00a0in 2026,\u00a0SPIRITBOX<\/strong>\u00a0remain one of the most influential acts in modern metal today; a fact echoed by the band\u2019s equally beloved 2025 sophomore studio album\u00a0Tsunami Sea<\/em>, which hit #26 on the US Billboard 200, cracked the top 20 in the UK charts, reached #1 on the UK Indie charts and #12 on the Top German Album charts. A band simultaneously capable of boundless innovation, fearless reinvention and an unwavering connection to their burgeoning global audience,\u00a0SPIRITBOX<\/strong>\u2019s live show boasts arena-level production, skull-crushing heaviness morphed alongside ethereal atmospherics, while immersing audiences head-first into the band\u2019s unwavering energy and artistry that most recently was on display for audiences down under when the group made their debut Aussie performances at Knotfest Australia in 2023.<\/p>\n

Also feeding the Good Things Festival matrix in 2026, Sydney\u2019s\u00a0POLARIS<\/strong>\u00a0are primed to stupefy with their blend of ferocity and melody, laced with blistering metalcore, post-rock and electronic influences. After relentless touring over the past few years, including supporting Linkin Park earlier this year for a massive national Australian arena run and supporting Electric Callboy in North America,\u00a0POLARIS<\/strong>\u00a0will celebrate a range of hits with Good Things audiences later this year, including cuts from their most recent ARIA Award-nominated studio album\u00a0Fatalism<\/em>\u00a0which debuted at #1 on the ARIA Charts, secured triple j\u2019s Feature Album upon release and won Best Independent Heavy Album at the 2024 AIR Awards. Now and forever,\u00a0THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS<\/strong>\u00a0proudly remain \u201ca band of the people\u201d, balancing raw honesty with uncompromising artistic integrity since forming at the turn of the century. An antidote to the age of opulence and over-stimulation,\u00a0THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS<\/strong>\u2019 bulletproof back catalogue incites adoration from day-one OG fans through to brand new converts, with earlier hits like\u00a0Dirty Little Secret<\/em>,\u00a0Move Along<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0It Ends Tonight<\/em>\u00a0joining with more recent creative terrain, including their fifth 2026 studio album\u00a0Sandbox<\/em>, to fortify fans and the band\u2019s sonic DNA time and time again. 2026 will also mark the band\u2019s first performances in Australia in over 17 years. Celebrating their 45 (+1) anniversary in 2026,\u00a0BAD RELIGION<\/strong>\u00a0are not just a band who defined the California half-pipe punk blueprint; they also held strong against changing trends and an ever-changing industry backdrop, crafting and releasing challenging album after challenging album while expanding their core audience with subsequent generations of anxiously energetic kids. Forming on the heels of the original punk explosion,\u00a0BAD RELIGION<\/strong>\u00a0injected their melodic riffs, zooming harmonies and sharp lyricism into the realms of hardcore, neo-punk and alternative rock along the way. Thought-provoking with an insatiable live presence that will live under your skin long after the lights go down,\u00a0BAD RELIGION<\/strong>\u2019s 17 studio albums also ensure a plethora of acclaimed favourites to dazzle any and all audiences, anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n

Exploding out of Southern Ontario\u2019s underground in 2001,\u00a0ALEXISONFIRE<\/strong>\u00a0would ultimately go on to become one of Canada’s most influential post hardcore bands. Multi-platinum, two-time JUNO Award winners, with more than one million records sold worldwide and five acclaimed albums in their wake,\u00a0ALEXISONFIRE<\/strong>\u00a0will gift Australian crowds this December a 20th anniversary performance of their 2006 third studio album\u00a0Crisis<\/em>\u00a0in full; an album that has been widely dubbed as a defining entry in the 2000s post hardcore scene and includes longtime favourites\u00a0This Could Be Anywhere in the World<\/em>,\u00a0Boiled Frogs\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Rough Hands<\/em>. Also prepare to fill your chemical heart with lashings of Australian alternative rock this December, with\u00a0GRINSPOON<\/strong>\u00a0ready to bring their incomparable live energy to Good Things stages in 2026. Hailing from Lismore,\u00a0GRINSPOON<\/strong>\u00a0leapt from taking out the triple j Unearthed competition in the mid 90s into an act who have landed in the top 10 of the ARIA albums chart for all eight of their albums to date, along with several nominations and 2 wins at the ARIA Awards, endless tours and an unwavering reputation for helping shape the Aussie alt-rock explosion in the 1990s. From songs as familiar as the national anthem like\u00a0Chemical Heart<\/em>,\u00a0Just Ace<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Hard Act To Follow<\/em>\u00a0through to more recent, and equally resonant fare,\u00a0GRINSPOON<\/strong>\u00a0continue their in demand status now over three decades into the journey. For over 25 years, Swedish punk pillars\u00a0MILLENCOLIN<\/strong>\u00a0have perfected their ever-evolving brand of melodic punk, continuously achieving global success along with shaping skate punk in the 1990s and 2000s in the process. Now nine albums in, with thousands of shows and a lineup that has survived and thrived the entire time,\u00a0MILLENCOLIN<\/strong>\u00a0will touch down in Australia this year after previously electrifying crowds down under with Pennywise in 2025, and delighting Good Things Festival crowds in 2022. And as an extra icing on top this year,\u00a0MILLENCOLIN<\/strong>\u00a0will perform their groundbreaking and platinum-certified 2000 album\u00a0Pennybridge Pioneers<\/em>\u00a0in full at Good Things this year. Meanwhile, from a DIY phenomenon to selling out tours around the world and sharing stages with Sleep Token, BABYMETAL and Bad Omens, Columbus, Ohio singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer\u00a0BILMURI\u00a0<\/strong>has spent the past decade defying expectations while also catching the eyes and ears of some of the biggest names in the scene. Via his uncanny hybrid of alternative rock hooks, heavy metal riffs, emo introspection and countrified charisma,\u00a0BILMURI<\/strong>\u00a0now boasts over 418 million streams, a staunchly dedicated and ever-evolving global fanbase, and most recently released his brand new full-length\u00a0KINDA HARD<\/em>\u00a0which\u00a0Kerrang!\u00a0<\/em>declared as\u00a0\u201ceccentric and full of curveballs but that\u2019s the magic\u2026you wouldn’t want it any other way\u201d<\/em>. Following his debut Australian national tour in 2026,\u00a0BILMURI<\/strong>\u00a0will return to electrify Aussie festival-goers this year at Good Things.<\/p>\n

Pioneering electronic synth pop coated with abrasive industrial metal terrain, Chicago-hailing heavies\u00a0MINISTRY<\/strong>\u00a0defined the industrial world in the mid-to-late 80s with thrashing percussion and neon-soaked distortion, fearlessly helmed by Al Jourgensen. Poised to release album #17 this October, the band\u2019s upcoming record\u00a0Hate to Go \u2013 Take Out or Delivery<\/em>\u00a0will join some of their commercial juggernaut records like 1989\u2019s\u00a0The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste\u00a0<\/em>and 1992\u2019s GRAMMY Award-nominated and platinum-certified\u00a0Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs<\/em>. With their 2026 Good Things Festival appearances also marking their final Australian performances, don\u2019t miss your chance to farewell\u00a0MINISTRY\u00a0<\/strong>with a send-off like no other.\u00a0With a 30+ year legacy in heavy metal,\u00a0CHAD GRAY<\/strong>\u00a0is undeniably a definitive voice in modern metal with his tenure in both Mudvayne and HELLYEAH. Seamlessly flitting between screaming intensity and mellow melodic cleans, CHAD GRAY is set to level up the spectacle at Good Things Festival this year, also making his Aussie return after touring with Mudvayne in 2024, and will bust out a tantalising mix of hits for the festival punters from his Mudvayne and HELLYEAH back catalogues. One of the most defining bands from the fertile and abundant mid-90s pop punk scene,\u00a0MXPX<\/strong>\u00a0not only set a blueprint of high-octane riffage and infectious choruses for generations of bands to come, they also maintained their own longevity for decades in the process, transitioning to releasing their music independently and expanding a deeply connective fanbase for over three decades. Between hits like\u00a0Let\u2019s Ride<\/em>,\u00a0Punk Rawk Show<\/em>,\u00a0Kids In America<\/em>\u00a0and more,\u00a0MXPX<\/strong>\u00a0will finally return to Australian soil this year for the first time in 13 years. Forming in a spare room in Wrexham, Wales,\u00a0NECK DEEP\u00a0<\/strong>have gone on to become one of British Rock music\u2019s most successful global exports in recent memory. From top 5 records in the US and the UK to global touring, including a raucous Australian run in 2025, viral hits and over 1.8 billion streams and counting,\u00a0NECK DEEP<\/strong>\u2019s music is equally at home sharing stages with Blink-182, State Champs and The Story So Far as it is featuring with custom music kits in the\u00a0Counter Strike<\/em>\u00a0video game series, and at major festival stages, including Vans Warped Tour, Slam Dunk Festival and countless others.<\/p>\n

Leaping from DIY Aussie band into global powerhouse status, Sydney\u2019s\u00a0SPEED<\/strong>\u00a0are synonymous with hardcore and tenacity. Staking their claim on the genre alongside an unwavering ethos built on inclusivity, authenticity and conviction,\u00a0SPEED<\/strong>\u00a0will bring their heavyweight set and immersive tunes to hometown crowds this year, following in-demand sets at Coachella, Reading & Leeds Festival and Sick New World, as well as sharing stages with Turnstile, Madball and Knocked Loose, and taking home the inaugural NSW Music Prize in 2025. Also flying the flag for Australian music at Good Things this year,\u00a0SLOWLY SLOWLY<\/strong>\u00a0have become firm favourites with their energetic brand of indie rock and pop punk that potently translates to a live setting. Debuting at #8 on the ARIA chart with their most recent album, 2025\u2019s\u00a0Forgiving Spree<\/em>,\u00a0SLOWLY SLOWLY\u00a0<\/strong>have previously wowed main stage slots at Good Things Festival, Splendour In The Grass and Groovin\u2019 The Moo, while nurturing their fanbase, accumulating 40+ million streams and releasing five beloved albums in just under 10 years. American nu metal pioneers\u00a0P.O.D.<\/strong>\u00a0have spent decades crafting their unique sound, bolstered by heavy riffs lined with hip hop, reggae and rap rock. Balancing aggressive sounds with uplifting themes,\u00a0P.O.D.<\/strong>\u2019s commercial appeal has seen them tour the globe time and time again, including their most recent Australian appearances back in 2018, while also unleashing era-defining singles like\u00a0Youth of the Nation<\/em>,\u00a0Boom\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Alive<\/em>, sell over 12 million records worldwide and appear on high profile movie soundtracks including\u00a0The Matrix Reloaded<\/em>,\u00a0Little Nicky<\/em>,\u00a0Any Given Sunday\u00a0<\/em>and many more. Exploring life\u2019s extremes in their music,\u00a0THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA<\/strong>\u00a0fearlessly face darkness and mirror life\u2019s ups and downs in their sonic creations. After two decades of making music,\u00a0THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA<\/strong>\u00a0most recently showcased their powerful bond as bandmates and creatives with their 2025 critically-acclaimed album\u00a0Flowers<\/em>, expanding into their most honest and heartfelt iteration to date, and seamlessly adding to their hallowed fan-favourites like\u00a0Danger: Wildman<\/em>,\u00a0Hey John<\/em>,\u00a0What\u2019s Your Name Again?<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Dez Moines<\/em>. Bona fide Australian rock royalty will also grace the Good Things citadel in 2026, with the\u00a0CHOIRBOYS<\/strong>\u00a0bringing some true blue charm to proceedings. From their landmark Aussie pub rock 1987 track\u00a0Run to Paradise\u00a0<\/em>through to other iconic singles like\u00a0Boys Will Be Boys<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Never Gonna Die<\/em>,\u00a0CHOIRBOYS<\/strong>\u00a0have spent over four decades releasing music that defines generations with storytelling and gritty delivery, translating into raw and boisterous live performances that truly are not to be missed.<\/p>\n

Ticking off their debut Australian performances earlier this year, Nashville-hailing\u00a0ALL THEM WITCHES<\/strong>\u00a0exist at an elusive crossroads of slow-burning and meditative distortion soaked with blues rock, dark Americana and magnetic psychedelia. Between their intoxicating live energy and transcendent creations, prepare to surrender your senses to this quartet\u2019s Good Things Festival set. After astounding Australian fans back in 2019, heightened power synth pop group\u00a0THE BLACK QUEEN<\/strong>, aka Greg Puciato (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Killer Be Killed), Joshua Eustis (Nine Inch Nails, Puscifer), Chris Pennie (Coheed and Cambria, The Dillinger Escape Plan) and seasoned tech Steven Alexander (DEP, NIN, Ke$ha), will bring lashings of 80s production with glossy and emotional depth this December; prepare for shadows, synths and sweat. With emotional intensity and expansive soundscapes, Germany alt metal act\u00a0FUTURE PALACE<\/strong>\u00a0have been traversing the avenues of post hardcore, metal, electronica and synth pop since forming in 2018. From the vocal acrobatics of Maria Lessing through to their bewitching sonic output,\u00a0FUTURE PALACE\u00a0<\/strong>also just unleashed their fourth studio album\u00a0Resurgence<\/em>, retaining their crown as one of the biggest rising acts in modern metal. And closer to home with one of Brisbane\u2019s most exciting emerging acts,\u00a0HEADWRECK<\/strong>\u00a0will also make their return to Good Things Festival this year after performing as a secret guest on Stage 5 in their hometown in 2025. With their glitch-heavy sonic wiles and appeal that spans fans of Moodring, Linkin Park, Northlane and Make Them Suffer, come and experience why\u00a0HEADWRECK<\/strong>\u00a0are prolifically sought out by fellow local and international heavies in the scene.<\/p>\n

Seattle-based quartet\u00a0THE HOME TEAM<\/strong>\u00a0will add some heavy pop vibes to the Good Things vibes this December, brandishing their mix of traditional pop punk and metal, lined with R&B, funk, jazz and straight up pop stylings that saw them score a 4\/5 from\u00a0Kerrang!<\/em>\u00a0for their 2024 album\u00a0The Crucible of Life<\/em>. Raw, hard-hitting, avant-garde and leading the charge for a new era of art-rock intensity, Los Angeles duo\u00a0HOUSE OF PROTECTION<\/strong>\u00a0balance confidence and chaos, bringing together Stephen Harrison (The Chariot) and Aric Improta (Night Verses) for a collision of post hardcore pedigree and boundless sonic experimentation that has seen them open for Poppy, Bad Omens and, most recently, Architects nationally for their 2025 Australian run. But if you\u2019re looking for a safe space to crawl into, curl up and find comfort in, Florida-born artist\u00a0IVRI<\/strong>, who kicked off her solo career with a string of EPs beginning in 2022, has just what you\u2019re looking for, shaping her sound around DIY alternative, intense pop, shoegaze, rock and sci-fi soul. Fusing raw and vulnerable writing with genre-blurring soundscapes,\u00a0IVRI<\/strong>\u2019s intimate, cinematic and, at times, otherworldly songs are eternally a unique and refreshing experience.<\/p>\n

Missouri-born, Las Vegas-raised\u00a0KAMI KEHOE<\/strong>\u00a0instantly took social media by storm with her live drum playthroughs, going on to release her debut 2023 album\u00a0Drama Queen<\/em>, before following up with 2024\u2019s\u00a0Revived<\/em>. Spinning heartbreak into modern alternative rock, sprinkled with pop, punk, R&B and soul,\u00a0KAMI KEHOE<\/strong>\u00a0commands centre stage with every magnetic performance, whether headlining or performing with the likes of Seether and P.O.D. And if you\u2019re seeking something short, fast and loud, Missouri hardcore act\u00a0LOCKED SHUT\u00a0<\/strong>abide by three musical tenets when it comes to creating: fast, heavy and straightforward. Revered for their relentless energy, blisteringly fast runtimes and barbed-wire grooves,\u00a0LOCKED SHUT<\/strong>\u00a0are the breakneck band of your dreams for anyone who loves hardcore music that doesn\u2019t take itself too seriously. Come for the intensity, stay for the unpredictable pandemonium. In a short space of time, Toronto-born, Los Angeles-based rising pop punk star\u00a0L\u00d8L\u00d8\u00a0<\/strong>has already ticked off collaborating with Simple Plan, toured with Boys Like Girls, New Found Glory and Against The Current, and graced the states of Lollapalooza, Sad Summer Festival and Slam Dunk Festival. Releasing her sophomore album\u00a0god forbid a girl spits out her feelings!<\/em>\u00a0earlier this year, Good Things Festival will mark\u00a0L\u00d8L\u00d8<\/strong>\u2019s maiden Australian performances. A meeting point between metalcore, elasticated 80s vibes, jazz, R&B and rap, Germany\u2019s\u00a0vianova<\/strong>\u00a0straddle hard-hitting immersion with a fearless pursuit of genre fusion. With over 19.1 million streams across their catalogue to date and counting,\u00a0vianova<\/strong>\u2019s viral trajectory has led to them enamouring TikTok and sharing stages with Thornhill, ERRA, Chamber and many more. Shattering stereotypes and bringing heavy music to a global stage, Indonesian all-female metal trio\u00a0VOICE OF BACEPROT\u00a0<\/strong>tackle environmental, gender and societal issues through their unapologetic blend of metal, heavy rock and punk. From small town classes to international festivals,\u00a0VOICE OF BACEPROT\u00a0<\/strong>are a loud, proud and unstoppable force that will find its way back down under after a blistering 2024 inaugural headline run.<\/p>\n

This December, a monolithic sonic sanctuary awaits. Escape the corporate static. Plug into the spectacular chaos. Embrace the noise. The future is now. Good Things are here.\u00a0End of transmission.<\/p>\n
