About Beyond The Valley 2026
Beyond The Valley runs at Barunah Plains in Hesse from December 28 into New Year's Day, presented by Untitled Group with triple j. Eighty-two music acts are billed, and unusually for a festival this far out, every one of them already has a day and a stage.
Three music stages divide the weekend by temperament. The Valley Stage carries the live bookings and the largest names, Dance Dome is the main dance room and the busiest stage on site with thirty-seven acts, and Dr Dan's is the smaller, later, more local room. A fourth space, The Lounge Room, programmes podcasts, talks and comedy rather than music, so its fourteen entries are not listed here.
New Year's Eve is the heaviest day on paper, with twenty-four acts across the three stages, and the bill thins gently backwards to thirteen on the opening night.
Expect dance, house, techno and electronic across 82 acts.

Northern Beaches six-piece playing sun-warmed psych rock with reggae and funk in the rhythm section, and 'Confidence' topping triple j's Hottest 100.
The pop-rap machine behind 'Where Is the Love?' and 'I Gotta Feeling', built for stadium singalongs and still touring hard.
PopHip-hop
Chicago's own tech-house superstar, bringing main-stage house music with hometown-hero energy and the biggest crossover run the genre has seen in years.
HouseTech house
Amsterdam's hard-trance revivalist, with acid lines and 150 BPM joy and rave classicism played with total exuberance.
TranceAcid techno
The filter-house architect behind 'U Don't Know Me', 'My My My' and half the Duck Sauce catalogue, still built for a room that wants to sweat.
HouseDisco house
Technicolor disco-house with relentless fun, zero pretension, and hooks big enough to convert whoever wandered past the stage.
Disco-house
Scottish DJ and producer who started out running his own club night in Ayr and now holds a DC10 residency with Patrick Topping's Trick. His records are raw, upbeat house with rave in their bones.
Dance
Job Jobse
Amsterdam selector with cult status built on taste rather than productions, sets drifting between house, techno, trance and nostalgic pop.
Techno
Leeds-via-Bradford producer leading the jungle revival, with breakbeats under genuinely tender songwriting and rave history reclaimed as diary.
JungleDrum-and-bass
Australian house heater, half of the HYPERBEAM b2b with OMNOM, with flip-happy edits and festival-scale bounce.
HouseTech house
French producer whose acid-heavy techno sits somewhere between rave nostalgia and something meaner, fast, playful, and increasingly one of Europe's most in-demand selectors.
TechnoAcid-techno
Alex Ridha's brand of electro is abrasive by design: hardware-driven, distorted, and consistently ahead of whatever is fashionable, two decades running.
TechnoElectro
Bogotá-born, Berlin-based producer whose "Phonky Tribu" pulled phonk cowbell and swung, distorted low end into a hard, trance-tinted club tempo.
Dance
Scottish DJ whose doof-inflected hard house has become one of the UK's biggest club draws: a Dundee dental nurse turned rave phenomenon.
Hard-houseTrance
Welsh brothers making the decade's defining UK bass, with tender vocals over hard breaks and 'So U Kno' still a shared euphoria.
UK bassBreaks
Melbourne DJ and producer working in the line of Detroit and Chicago house: stripped-back, functional records built for the floor. 'Actin' Tough' took him from local underground ID to a Beatport number one.
Electronic
Brisbane four-piece making sunny, danceable indie pop, nimble guitar lines and elastic bass over electronics, built for big singalongs.
Indie pop
Brisbane twin sisters Jess and Lisa Origliasso, whose tight sibling harmonies power bratty pop-rock and electropop hits like 'Untouched' and '4ever'.
Pop
Long Beach rapper with a comedian's timing and the bleakest source material, never once sentimental, and funnier live than most comics.
Hip hopWest coast hip hop
Arielle Free
Glasgow DJ and producer heard on BBC Radio 1, whose big-energy sets have carried her to Glastonbury, Creamfields and Ibiza.

Sample-soul house on the rise, with warm, chopped-vocal grooves and a headphone producer's detail, soulful edits with an easy touch.
Melodic house
Melbourne songwriter, producer and DJ making pop with a club pulse. The live show leans on a background in dance and theatre, with emotive lyrics over floor-ready production.
Dance-popClub
Rum Jungle
Newcastle, Australia group dealing in loose, sun-warmed guitar pop, with jangling hooks and easy harmonies and a coastal looseness to them.

Dance
Euphoric, garage-inflected house with a melodic streak that lands somewhere between rave and daydream, full of full-color club joy.
