Country music fans, get ready! Australia’s Strummingbird festival will be headlined by none other than Post Malone in October 2026. This exciting announcement comes from the festival’s organizers and promises to deliver a stellar lineup that includes the likes of Bailey Zimmerman and Cooper Alan, along with numerous other country acts. The three-day event will land in Ballarat, Newcastle, and the Sunshine Coast, making it a must-attend for country music lovers across the nation.
As Malone takes the stage, it’ll be the cherry on top of his recent success with his Grammy-nominated country crossover album, F-1 Trillion. This album has turned heads and prompted discussions across genres, and it’s clear he’s ready to put on an unforgettable show in Australia after his previous triumph at Splendour in the Grass. Really, if there was ever a time to polish those dance boots, it’s now, as tickets go on presale starting May 13 and general admission follows on May 14. Time to mark those calendars and prepare to kick up some dust!
