ICONIC UK ‘MIGHTY HOOPLA FESTIVAL’ WILL MAKE ITS SYDNEY DEBUT WITH KESHA LEADING THE LINE-UP!
Dust off your glitter, pull on your platform boots and prepare for pop mayhem — because the UK’s most iconic celebration of pop culture, MIGHTY HOOPLA, is officially coming to Australia for the very first time!
Landing in Sydney on Saturday, February 21 in 2026 on famous Bondi Beach, MIGHTY HOOPLA SYDNEY promises an explosion of pure joy, fierce performances, and unapologetic pop brilliance — bringing with it the festival’s trademark mix of music, mischief, and mayhem that has made it a cult phenomenon in London.
And leading the charge for the festival’s down under debut? None other than global pop powerhouse KESHA! From her anthemic hits like Tik Tok, We R Who We R, and Joyride to her unapologetic stage energy and fearless individuality, Kesha is the perfect artist to headline Mighty Hoopla’s glitter-drenched Australian chapter.
But that’s just the beginning — expect a kaleidoscopic line-up of iconic artists, drag royalty, DJs, and queer party collectives from both the UK and Australia to join the party when the full line-up drops very soon!!
Mighty Hoopla Founder Glyn Fussell says: “Australia has always been my second home, it’s where I found out who I was as a queer man. And in turn has always been part of the Mighty Hoopla family in spirit — you’ve got the best pop fans in the world! To finally bring the Hoopla magic to Sydney is a dream come true. Expect joy, chaos, and the campest day of your life. Our touchdown is a dream come true.”
Mighty Hoopla Co-founder Jamie Tagg says: “We’re honoured to be able to bring Mighty Hoopla to the other side of the world. After Kesha’s incredible headline performance with us in London earlier this year, we knew she was the only artist we wanted to make our Australian debut with.”
Since launching in 2016, Mighty Hoopla has grown into the UK’s biggest pop festival — a glittering utopia celebrating freedom, inclusivity and the music that makes us move. The UK past line-ups have included the likes of Nelly Furtado, Sugababes, Years & Years, Steps, Kelly Rowland, TLC, All Saints and Jessie Ware just to name a few.
Now, for the first time ever, it’s Australia’s turn to experience the magic.
