Behind the scenes, our team has been working incredibly hard to shape an exciting and diverse line-up for Heartland Festival 2026. From returning favourites to brand-new names on the Main Stage and our Discovery Stage, we’re putting together a weekend of music to remember.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be revealing the artists performing across our stages — and here’s what to expect:

• 14 artists will feature on the main stage across the festival weekend
• 3 acts will perform at our Friday night event
• 12 artists will be announced later this year for the Discovery Stage

We’ve always aimed to be as open and transparent as possible with our plans and communication, and we want to make sure everyone knows exactly where we’re at. Artist announcements take time, and some are subject to contractual restrictions, meaning we’re unable to share or confirm certain names at the present time.

In particular, the Saturday and Sunday headliners will be announced mid to late September.

Our full main stage weekend line-up and Friday night line-up will be finalised by the end of September, with Discovery Stage announcements following in October/November.

Please also note:
Due to ongoing ticket sales throughout August, it is anticipated that our Tier 2 allocation will sell out soon, and we’ll be moving to Tier 3 pricing in early September. At the same time, Friday early bird tickets will increase to final day pricing.

If you’re planning to join us, booking your tickets now will secure the best available price for both events.

Thank you to everyone for their continued support.
