On The Banks, Brisbane/Meanjin’s new riverside, outdoor live concert series, just turned up the volume, today announcing a second wave of international icons and homegrown heroes set to perform on the Cultural Forecourt at South Bank in early 2026.
A partnership between Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC) and South Bank Corporation, On The Banks will transform the Cultural Forecourt into a vibrant outdoor music destination across February and March 2026. With the river and city skyline as its backdrop, and warm Brisbane summer nights filled with food, bars and friends, On The Banks’ line-up just keeps getting bigger and better!
Running from 25 February – 22 March 2026, On The Banks today adds four major headline events and a very special support spot, spanning indie pop, reggae, rock, new wave and iconic performance art, and showcasing a bold mix of voices and contemporary sounds from around the globe.
On The Banks welcomes the addition of, in date order, King Stingray, MARINA with special guest MALLRAT, Grace Jones, Maoli and Sarah Blasko to the inaugural line-up. They join the already confirmed artists: Droppin’ Science: De La Soul with Oddisee & Good Compny and Miss Kaninna, The Streets, Disco Club, Bernard Fanning with special guests Kasey Chambers, The Paper Kites, Troy & Jem Cassar-Daley and Georgia Mooney, Peach PRC with special guests Maude Latour and Salty, Blockbuster, and Marlon Williams.
