AceShowbiz - ULTRA Worldwide has unveiled the complete lineup for the highly anticipated ULTRA Beach Gold Coast 2026, set to take place on April 12 at Broadwater Parklands in Queensland, Australia.
The upcoming festival marks the third edition of this vibrant beachside event and promises to be the most expansive yet. For the first time in its history, the festival will feature two stages: the Main Stage and the UMF Radio Stage, expanding beyond its previous single-stage format.
Headlining the festival is the Swedish DJ-producer Alesso, who will deliver an exclusive Australian performance as part of his upcoming tour. Alesso remains a dominant figure in the global electronic music scene, known for hits like "Heroes (We Could Be)" featuring Tove Lo, "Years," and his popular remix of OneRepublic's "If I Lose Myself," which helped cement his international reputation.
The lineup also boasts other major electronic music stars, including The Chainsmokers, DJ Snake, Darren Styles, MaRLo, Nico Moreno, and Oliver Heldens. The Chainsmokers gained worldwide fame with chart-topping tracks such as "Closer" featuring Halsey and "Something Just Like This" alongside Coldplay. Meanwhile, DJ Snake has scored global hits like "Lean On," his collaboration with Major Lazer and MØ, as well as "Taki Taki."
Oliver Heldens, a Dutch DJ well-known in the house music circuit, will also be performing with notable tracks like "Gecko (Overdrive)" and "Last All Night (Koala)" under his belt.
Supporting acts include Dutch producer KAAZE and a strong representation of emerging Australian talent. Local performers slated to appear across the two stages include Ali James, Brooklyn, Fletcher Kirkman, Hektic, and Jayrob. The festival will also feature several back-to-back sets such as Brooklyn b2b Rory, Jayrob b2b Rymak, and Justice b2b Sophie Bridges, offering diverse and dynamic performances for attendees.
Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate expressed his enthusiasm for the festival's return, calling it a significant highlight on the city’s annual major events calendar. In his statement, Tate said, "From Miami to the Gold Coast, this ULTRA Beach festival epitomises everything that's great about our city."
ULTRA Beach Gold Coast is part of the larger ULTRA Worldwide brand, which originated with the Ultra Music Festival in Miami in 1999. Since then, it has grown into a global network of electronic music festivals held across Europe, Asia, South America, and Australia.
Tickets for ULTRA Beach Gold Coast 2026 are currently available for purchase through the festival’s official website, inviting fans to secure their spots early for what promises to be an unforgettable celebration of electronic music.
