St Jerome's Laneway Festival has announced its 2027 touring schedule, confirming four dates across Australia and New Zealand for February next year. In a notable shift from the event's established pattern, Sydney will open the run for the first time, with the festival setting up at Centennial Park on Friday, 12th February 2027. The city join Brisbane, Melbourne and Auckland as the four stops on what shapes up to be one of the most anticipated editions in the festival's two-decade-plus history.

After Sydney kicks things off, the tour moves to Brisbane Showground on Saturday, 13th February, before heading south to Flemington Park in Melbourne on Friday, 19th February, honouring the city where Laneway Festival first took shape. Auckland then closes the tour on Sunday, 21st February at Western Springs, with the refurbished Western Springs Bowl and Western Springs Park hosting what will be the festival's New Zealand finale, supported by Auckland Council Events.

No artists have been confirmed yet for the 2027 festival, with the full lineup set to drop in late September 2026. Laneway has long championed a diverse mix of alternative, indie, electronic, hip-hop and pop talent, pairing emerging acts with more established names, and fans will be watching closely when that announcement arrives.

For now, the confirmed dates give festival-goers plenty of time to plan ahead. St Jerome's Laneway Festival 2027 runs from 12th to 21st February, spanning Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Auckland in what promises to be a landmark touring run for one of Australia's most beloved independent music events.
