Southport Sharks is thrilled to announce that we will be hosting Laneway Festival on Saturday, 7 February 2026!
Since 2007, Laneway Festival has been a leader in the Brisbane summer cultural calendar, and for the first time the Gold Coast will now become the home of this iconic event.
As an over 16’s event, Laneway Festival appeals to seasoned festival goers and the next generation discovering artists for the first time.
“Hosting Laneway Festival is a milestone moment for the Gold Coast as we work together to grow a world-class cultural calendar,” said Dean Bowtell, CEO of Southport Sharks.
“Redevelopment across the city (Brisbane) in the lead-up to 2032 provides an incredible opportunity to secure major events, and Southport Sharks is proud to be part of that journey. Through our Masterplan investment in community facilities and event spaces, and by deepening our partnerships with the City of Gold Coast, Experience Gold Coast and beyond, we’re committed to shaping a vibrant future for our city.”
