Snow Machine Has Just Dropped It’s Queenstown Lineup 2026
Après all day
By Olivia Schoenauer | 19th February 2025The Snow Machine 2026 lineup is seriously stacked, with global heavyweights Claptone, Amyl and The Sniffers (in an exclusive NZ show), Netsky, Mallrat, Luude, and Hot Dub Time Machine leading the charge. Add a killer mix of acts like Odd Mob, Montel2099, and Mell Hall, plus stage takeovers from Poof Doof Ski Club, Thick As Thieves, Revolver Sundays, and Electric Rush, and you’ve got one of the most exciting ski festivals in the Southern Hemisphere.
But Snow Machine isn’t just about the music. This is a full-blown adventure. The festival kicks off with a wild welcome party at AJ Hackett Bungy Kawarau Bridge, where you can vibe to DJ sets while psyching yourself up for a bungy jump. Fancy skiing in costume? The legendary fancy-dress ski day is back, so start planning your best snow-friendly fit. And with access to Coronet Peak and The Remarkables, two of New Zealand’s most breathtaking ski resorts, you’ll be shredding powder in between dancefloor sessions.
