The Biggest Artists Coming To Brisbane In 2026 (So Far)
Kesha's coming to Brisbane?!
By Bianca Licina | 14th January 2026If your New Year’s resolution was to catch more live gigs – or finally stop missing your favourite artists when they come to town – this one’s for you.
2026 is the year to plan ahead, block out your calendar early, and treat live music dates with the same dedication as a European summer holiday. Brisbane’s concert scene is stacked, sparkling, and absolutely worth organising your life around.
From stadium spectacles to intimate, scream-every-lyric moments, the city is about to be drenched in star power. Lorde, Kesha, Ed Sheeran, Kelli Holliday… just a few of the artists you won’t want to miss. Consider this your ultimate setlist for the year: the shows to circle, the dates to lock in, and the performances you’ll still be buzzing about long after the confetti clears.
Okay, enough preamble – let’s draw the curtain and dive into the juicy details…
