<a href="/tags/lost paradise">Lost Paradise</a> will return to Glenworth Valley on Darkinjung Country from 28 December 2026 through 1 January 2027.
The full line-up is still to come, but the confirmed dates place the Australian festival back in its familiar New Year position, combining live music, electronic performance, camping and several days of attempting to remember where the tent was placed. The valley setting is central to <a href="/tags/lost paradise">Lost Paradise</a>’s identity, turning the festival into a temporary world rather than simply a sequence of acts on large stages.
Announcing the dates before the artists gives audiences time to begin the traditional planning process: gathering friends, comparing travel options and agreeing that this year everyone will definitely pack sensibly. The return itself is welcome news for Australia’s summer festival calendar.
