This summer, the beloved tastemaker festival celebrates its 21st birthday with a refreshed route across six Trans-Tasman cities — with Laneway Festival NZ once again leading the tour.
In Aotearoa, Laneway Festival Tāmaki Makaurau will take place on Thursday 5 February at Western Springs, shifting to the day before Waitangi Day for the very first time. That means fans can start their long weekend at Laneway, kicking things off with some of the most exciting new music from around the world before the tour heads across the Tasman to five Australian cities.
Laneway Festival co-founders Danny Rogers and Jerome Borazio say, “It’s incredible to be celebrating 21 years of Laneway. What began as a little street party in a Melbourne laneway has grown into a summer ritual across Australia and New Zealand. Auckland has been such an important part of that story, and every year we’re blown away by the response from the artists, fans and community that make Laneway so special — 2026 is about honouring that history while looking to the future.”
