BIGSOUND 2025 Reveals Full Program With Huge Final Lineup of Events and Activations

Australia’s biggest music conference and showcase festival, BIGSOUND, has officially unveiled its full program for 2025, cementing its place as the Southern Hemisphere’s premier music industry event. Returning to Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley from September 2–5, the four-day celebration promises 130 artists, 100 industry speakers, 70 conference sessions and workshops, and 18 stages across the city.

By day, BIGSOUND’s conference will bring together some of the world’s most influential music minds for panels, roundtables and networking events. By night, the festival will showcase the next wave of Australian and international talent, offering delegates and fans unparalleled opportunities to discover emerging artists.

This year’s program introduces a stacked lineup of special events, including the Live Nation ONES TO WATCH Showcase, Amazon Music Sessions at La La Land, BIGSOUND River Cruise presented by Dark Arts Global and Chameleon Touring Systems, and Select Music’s 20th Birthday Party. The festival’s legendary Closing Night Party, presented by The Tivoli, and the highly anticipated Oztix BIGSOUND Party at The Brightside will also return.

The new BIGSOUND Delegate Hub at Fortitude Music Hall will provide spaces for work, networking and relaxation, while the Content House debuts at Summa House, hosting workshops, activations and masterclasses from Spotify AU/NZ, TikTok and CLIPPED TV.

Festival-goers can enjoy free all-ages programming at the Brunswick Mall Stage, featuring APRA AMCOS & Big Loud’s Writers in the Round, pop-up showcases and more. Plus, Aether Brewing’s The Tastemaker has been crowned the official beer of BIGSOUND 2025.

Second release delegate passes and early bird festival tickets are on sale now, with prices rising from August 5. The full program and delegate portal are live at bigsound.org.au.
