Lost Paradise Is Calling: Festival Organisers Confirm 2026 Return

Now entering its twelfth year, the upcoming Lost Paradise follows an incredible edition that sold out “in record time”.

During a bleak time for music festivals in Australia, it’s important to celebrate the good news. Today, live music promoters Finely Tuned have confirmed that the annual festival they present, Lost Paradise, will return in 2026.

Returning to the Glenworth Valley, New South Wales, the annual New Year’s celebratory event has revealed the dates for the upcoming festival. Lost Paradise 2026 takes place from Monday, 28 December, to Friday, 1 January 2027.

The 2026 line-up will be revealed in the coming weeks. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t sign up for pre-sale tickets from now.

For your best chance of securing tickets, you can reserve your place now by using any payment method and enabling automatic purchases. Don’t stress, though: no money will leave your account until the pre-sale opens. Every ticket also includes GA camping access.

Registering for pre-sale tickets puts punters in the running to win the Lost Paradise Golden Ticket – you can find more information about it here and sign up for pre-sale tickets here.
