Australia’s heaviest beer-soaked, riff-blasted, mosh festival Froth & Fury is back for 2026 — and it’s officially spreading the chaos westward. The beloved Adelaide-born bash is heading to Perth for the very first time, teaming up with Soundworks Direct Presents to deliver a double-dose of multi-stage madness.
Leading the carnage on next year’s lineup are homegrown heroes Polaris, the unstoppable metalcore juggernauts making their first Aussie festival headlining appearance since Knight & Day 2021.
“Lots more bands to be announced”
And that’s far from the only thing to celebrate. Froth & Fury 2026 is also bringing the Max Cavalera double punch with Soulfly and Nailbomb both hitting the lineup — the latter making their first-ever Australian appearance.
For the metalheads, there’s technical death wizards Archspire, Norwegian black metal lord Abbath, and Belgium’s brutal finest Aborted.
On the punk’n’core side, legends Lagwagon, Frenzal Rhomb, In Hearts Wake, and Ocean Sleeper are in the mix, alongside mischief-makers Private Function, hardcore bruisers Terminal Sleep, rising stars Zuko, and Adelaide-only sets from Comeback Kid (celebrating 20 years of Wake the Dead) and Gridiron.
And the craziest part? That’s just the first announcement. More chaos is incoming with “lots more bands to be announced”, according to the official poster.
Froth & Fury is an all ages, fully licensed festival with a focus on bands, beers, markets and mayhem. Catch it hitting Perth HCP on Saturday, 24th January and Adelaide Showgrounds on Saturday, 31st January.
