Bluesfest Byron Bay has officially confirmed its return for 2026, dispelling earlier reports that the 2025 edition would be its final year. The announcement came as the 2025 festival, held from April 17 to April 20, was wrapping up, much to the excitement of fans and the music community.
Official Confirmation And Ticket Sales for 2026
On April 20, 2025, as the festival was concluding, organizers officially confirmed Bluesfest would return from April 2 to April 5, 2026, coinciding with the Easter long weekend. To support the festival’s future, pre-early bird tickets for 2026 went on sale immediately, encouraging fans to secure their tickets at the best possible price.
Ticketing And Festival Information
For the 2026 festival, ticketing is expected to follow the tradition of early bird sales shortly after the current festival ends.
Bluesfest tickets are typically emailed about two weeks before the event via Moshtix, the official ticket provider. Fans can resell tickets through Moshtix’s official resale platform or recognized marketplaces like Tixel. Name changes on e-tickets are possible but may incur a fee, and strict ID checks at entry help prevent scalping.
