A Sydney institution and New Year’s Day tradition, Field Day returns to add another chapter to its legacy with an epic celebration on Gadigal Country this New Year’s Day. Featuring a stacked lineup of Australian and international talent, the festival will once again fill The Domain with music, energy and community spirit.

Across three stages, the Field Day 2026 lineup brings together some of the biggest names in global dance music. Legendary British DJ Carl Cox teams up with Welsh producer Jamie Jones for solo and back-to-back sets that promise to keep Sydney moving well into the night.

Across three decades, Carl Cox has remained one of the UK’s most influential DJs. A multi-award winner at the DJ Awards, International Dance Music Awards and NME Awards, Cox has long been a mainstay at Tomorrowland and Ultra Music Festival. With five studio albums, countless singles, collaborations and remixes for Fatboy Slim, Sofi Tukker and deadmau5, his impact on electronic music is undeniable.

Speaking on his return, Cox said, “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.”

Jamie Jones, one of the UK’s defining electronic artists, has been shaping global dance culture since his 2006 debut. Voted Resident Advisor’s Top DJ of 2011, he has headlined clubs around the world, built a loyal following through his Paradise residency in Ibiza and played festivals including Coachella, Creamfields and Glastonbury.

Italian powerhouse Deborah De Luca brings her signature techno to Sydney following her 25-track album Hard Pop Vol. 2. Danish producer Kölsch joins the bill, performing material from his critically acclaimed 2025 release KINEMA. British producer and Trick label head Patrick Topping makes his Field Day debut, bringing remixes of Calvin Harris, Robyn and more alongside his standout single Want U.

Australian icons The Presets return with their unmatched live set. The ARIA-winning duo remain leaders in electronic music, commanding festival and club stages nationwide. Rising producer STÜM, whose Solar Safari Tour sold out in minutes across Australia, and Berlin-based Patrick Mason, known for his high-energy house and techno, also join the lineup.

The 2026 roster features ‘Shooting Stars’ duo Bag Raiders, Irish hitmakers Belters Only, and London’s BL3SS, representing the next wave of UK talent. Charlotte Plank brings her ClubLiminal EP back to Sydney, while ARIA-nominated CYRIL makes his debut with tracks from To the World and From Down Under. Fish56Octagon, drum and bass producer SOTA, and French-born, London-based DJ Swimming Paul round out the international lineup.

Field Day’s commitment to homegrown talent continues with Atomic Kiss, Chase Zera,Djanaba, Eva Charley, Jarred Baker, Jessi Lowkey, Tomgraaam, Troy Beman, Yemi Sul and ZOTDOTCOM each set to light up The Domain on New Year’s Day 2026.

Making its debut in 2026 is CAMP GROUND, a new stage dedicated to Sydney’s queer talent. Explaining its creation, organisers Fuzzy said;

 “Field Day has always been a space where LGBTQIA+ communities are welcome and celebrated. Queer artists and revellers have been a big part of Field Day’s 25 years of success, we’re thrilled to honour that by introducing CAMP GROUND to the festival in 2026 – curated by and for LGBTQIA+ communities, spotlighting some of Sydney’s best.”

Now celebrating its 25th year, Field Day remains one of Australia’s most loved festivals. With a lineup that reflects the momentum of electronic music both here and abroad, the event continues to prove its place at the heart of Sydney’s summer.
