Star the acts you want now. When set times drop, your schedule is already built.
Paramore's singer in her solo work, trading the band's guitar punch for looser, stranger songs built around the same unmistakable voice.
Brisbane producer working in house — club tracks built for local dancefloors rather than festival-sized drops.
Slovak pop singer with a club producer's sense of drama, writing hooks that sound built for a strobe.
Minimalist LA synth-punk trio — icy grooves and motorik precision, like a security-camera feed of a party you're not cool enough to attend.
Kiwi brothers making slinky, falsetto-led alt-funk — Auckland groove-pop polished to a late-night sheen, with basslines that do most of the flirting.
Bleech 9:3
Maximalist internet pop that keeps reaching further, from the electroclash bounce of 'PQC' to the raw, inward album In Endless Awe & Agony.
PC Music's dance-floor half, making trance and happy hardcore sound sincere rather than ironic.
Brooklyn band led by Zachary Cole Smith, playing shoegaze in long, chiming guitar washes. 'Frog in Boiling Water' (2024) pushed the haze toward heavier, darker ground.
Builds the set from scratch on stage, writing code as the track plays and projecting it for the room — algorave practice turned into an actual dance set.
Genre-smashing Melbourne punk-rap — riffs, bars, and zero regard for lanes, delivered with a hardcore band's physicality.
Irish indie four-piece — harmony-rich guitar pop on a steep rise, carrying the Cranberries torch for a new generation.
Dublin's next post-punk export — snarling and kinetic, riding the same wave that carried Fontaines out of the city.
Berlin's masked 'farmcore' phenomenon — giddy barnyard-trance house played dead serious, 'My Barn My Rules' as manifesto.
Digicore prodigy turned noise-pop auteur — abrasive and gorgeous at once, walls of distortion hiding devastating melody.
German pop singer making glossy, club-built dance-pop. Her duet with Sam Smith, 'Unholy', won a Grammy in 2023.
Life-affirming queer synth-pop — 'Silk Chiffon' joy with serious writing chops, and the best live banter in pop included.
Glittering, game-engine electronic — Australia's most inventive young club producer, chiptune sparkle at rave pressure, drops that sparkle as hard as they hit.
British indie-pop with a sharp lyrical edge — bright arrangements carrying much darker subject matter, Croydon storytelling on the rise.
Sugar-trap screamo-rap pioneer — DMV hometown chaos, joyfully unhinged, whisper-to-shriek whiplash as a signature and a live show running on pure adrenaline.
Rommulas
Glitter-and-grit dance-pop — Y2K excess reborn as main-stage camp, played with total commitment to the fantasy.
Tiffany Day
Big-voiced confessional pop with a bedroom-recording intimacy — writes about wanting things badly and doesn't dress it up.
Greatsouth
MOKOMOKAI
O & The Mo
Office Dog
