Gunna to Headline Rolling Loud Australia’s Return in 2026
Rolling Loud is set to make an exciting comeback to Australia, featuring two separate one-day festivals headlined by the talented US artist Gunna.
On March 7th, 2026, the vibrant atmosphere of Rolling Loud will return to Sydney’s Centennial Park. The following day, the festival will continue its energy at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne. Fans can anticipate an unforgettable experience filled with stellar performances and engaging on-site activities.
The popular hip-hop festival launched its Australian journey in 2019, showcasing big names such as Future, Lil Uzi Vert, and local star Manu Crook$. Although a follow-up was planned for last year, it faced postponement just weeks after the announcement.
Gunna Takes Center Stage
Gunna has been confirmed to perform at both festivals, with additional lineup details expected soon. The festival promises an exciting mix of international acts paired with some of Australia’s most notable talent.
This appearance is part of Gunna’s ‘Wun World Tour,’ leading up to his European leg later in the month. The 32-year-old rapper from Atlanta has maintained his status in the industry even after the challenges posed by the YSL trial in 2022.
Legal Struggles and Career Resilience
In the trial, Gunna and his former YSL associate Young Thug were implicated in alleged gang activity. While Young Thug contends that YSL is not a criminal organization, Gunna accepted an Alford Plea in December 2022, acknowledging the need to end the “gang.”
The Global Expansion of Rolling Loud
Following Australia, Rolling Loud will debut in Mumbai this November. Headlined by artists like Central Cee and Wiz Khalifa, the festival promises to feature a blend of international talent and rising Indian stars in the hip-hop scene.
This year’s Rolling Loud California was a landmark success. It featured memorable performances, including a marathon set by Playboi Carti and A$AP Rocky’s incredible return via helicopter, emphasizing the brand’s cultural significance.
The Australian festival in 2026 is poised to continue this legacy.
Tickets are set to go on sale at 8 AM on October 23rd. Interested in joining the excitement?
