The 2026 Festival Program Is Here

The program for the 2026 Victor Harbor Rock ’N’ Roll Festival is now live, and there’s a lot to explore.

From 18–20 September, Victor Harbor will once again come alive with rock ’n’ roll, classic vehicles, dancing and plenty of seaside festival atmosphere. Across the weekend you’ll find live music on the Warland Reserve Stage, evening shows and late-night dancing at The Coral Club by 5MU, plus markets, cruising events, family activities and more happening around town.

The full program is now available on our updated website, making it easier than ever to see what’s happening across the weekend and start planning your visit.

Feature Artists and Coral Club Shows

The Coral Club by 5MU at the Victor Harbor Town Hall will host three special evening shows across the weekend, featuring some outstanding rock ’n’ roll talent from across Australia.

This year’s feature artists include:

Cherry Divine (QLD) – a powerhouse modern rockabilly performer with a voice and stage presence that always brings the dancefloor to life.

The Lincolns (SA) and The Linelockers (NSW) – a double-header of classic rock ’n’ roll and rockabilly energy, pairing Adelaide’s Teddy Boy sound with a driving rockabilly trio from the east coast.

Lonnie Lee (NSW) – a genuine pioneer of Australian rock ’n’ roll whose career stretches back to the very beginnings of the music in this country.

These shows are a chance to see some incredible live performers in the dance-hall atmosphere of the Coral Club, and they’re expected to be highlights of the festival weekend.

Tickets and a limited Weekend VIP Pass are available now.
