SoundOut 2026

Now in our 17th year, SoundOut is one of the gateway exploratory music-art events in Australia, providing a much-needed avenue for brilliant musical endeavors from around the world and Australia. SoundOut continues to foster creative collaborations between some of the best artists, the world has to offer, and our own brilliant Australian artists and showcasing these to the community. In 2026, 26 Artists from Australia, China, Denmark, France, Switzerland and the UK will combine, cross-fertilize, and move sound mountains to uplift your ears and replenish the mind during the 3 day event, which spans approximately 17 hrs of music, over 22 sets.

SoundOut is running a Go-Fund-Me campaign as it was not successful in funding applications for 2026. They need all the help you can give so please consider donating and helping keep the SoundOut festival alive. It would be very much appreciated if you did. Donate here
