Beyond The Valley Sells Out in Pre-sale, Cancels General On-Sale

Beyond The Valley has sold out its 2026 edition in pre-sale, cancelling its general on-sale, mind continued pressure on Australia's festival sector.

Beyond The Valley has sold out its entire 2026/27 ticket allocation during pre-sale, meaning its scheduled general public on-sale will no longer go ahead.

All tickets were exhausted through The Daily Aus and the festival's official pre-sale ahead of the planned Friday, August 7th release.

The result surpasses last year's record-breaking 10th anniversary edition, which sold out during general on-sale in under an hour. That event drew 40,000 fans to Barunah Plains across four days over New Year's.

Selling out before tickets even reach the general public is a remarkable result in the current Australian festival market, where cancellations, rising costs and sluggish ticket sales have become increasingly common. 

It also marks a second consecutive sellout for Untitled Group's flagship camping festival as it enters its second decade. 

“We feel grateful to the amazing BTV community who have grown with us over the past decade. They continue to bring their passion and energy year after year,” Untitled Group Co-Founder and Managing Partner Nicholas Greco said. 

“To sell out for a second consecutive year is extraordinary and something we never take for granted.”

Greco said the result also reflected continued demand for a lineup combining major international acts with Australian artists.

“We do our best to get tickets into the hands of our incredible community of BTV festival-goers, but we also know this means some people will have missed out,” he added. 

Fans who were unsuccessful have been directed to the festival's official Tixel resale waitlist.

Beyond The Valley's 11th edition will be headlined by John Summit, an Australian-exclusive appearance from Black Eyed Peans, KI/KI and Skepta.

Ocean Alley, Overmono, Disco Lines, Armand Van Helden, The Veronicas, Vince Staples, Frost Children, Jayde G, salute, south star, Odd Mob and Dean Turnley are also on the bill. 

Presented by Untitled Group and triple j, Beyond The Valley will return to Barunah Plains on Wadawurrung and Eastern Maar Country from December 28th, 2026 until January 1st, 2027.

The festival is supported by the Australian Government's Revive Live initiative and the Victorian Government's Regional Event Fund.
