Good Things Festival has officially unveiled its 2026 sideshow program, with The All-American Rejects, Millencolin, Ministry, P.O.D., The Devil Wears Prada and stacks more artists squeezing in headline shows around this year’s festival.
Following last week’s news that top-billed acts Limp Bizkit, Simple Plan and Spiritbox won’t be playing any sideshows while they’re down under, organisers have now revealed both the full sideshow slate and a bunch more acts who’ll be exclusive to the festival.
Joining the top three on the no-sideshow list are Bad Religion, Alexisonfire, Bilmuri, Chad Gray, MXPX, Neck Deep and Voice Of Baceprot, meaning Good Things will be your only opportunity to catch any of those acts in Australia this December.
As for who is getting sideshows, there are plenty of goodies.
The All-American Rejects will play an intimate Melbourne headline show during their first Australian visit in more than 17 years, while Swedish punk favourites Millencolin will bring their full-album performance of Pennybridge Pioneers to Melbourne and Brisbane.
Ministry will squeeze in Sydney and Adelaide headline shows as part of their final-ever Australian visit, while P.O.D. will team up with Melbourne’s Ocean Grove for dates in Brisbane, Adelaide and Melbourne.
The Devil Wears Prada are bringing Future Palace along for Adelaide and Brisbane shows, while Kami Kehoe will play solo in Sydney before teaming up with LØLØ for co-headliners in Brisbane and Melbourne.
Also getting amongst the sideshow action are All Them Witches, The Home Team, House Of Protection, IVRI, The Black Queen, Locked Shut and vianova.
Good Things ticket holders get first crack at presale tickets from 10am local time on Wednesday, 16th September, provided they purchased their festival ticket before 9am that morning.
Good Things, Destroy All Lines, venue and ticketing presales will follow from 10am local time on Thursday, 17th September, before general tickets go on sale from 10am local time on Friday, 18th September.
