Carl Cox said of his return to Sydney, “I’ll never forget seeing in the year 2000 on Bondi Beach. It’s great to be back with Fuzzy for another milestone - celebrating 25 years of Field Day.”
Festival organisers Fuzzy added, “Field Day has always been an inclusive and welcoming space for the LGBTQIA+ community. With our close proximity to the Oxford Street Precinct, celebrating queer culture has always been central to who we are. We’re thrilled to introduce a fully queer-programmed and dedicated stage at the festival in 2026.”
