‘Thrashville 2025 was a perfect example of just how vibrant, varied and vigorous the Australian heavy music scene has become. But above everything, it’s an absolutely incredible experience.’ Wall of Sound

‍

Rolling off the success of last year, where the 2025 event trialled a new time of year and a new four stage layout and seem to take the throne as the best edition in the festivals existence. The 2026 festival will be in most cases, exactly the same, a few minor tweaks at best, but mostly just the return of all the good stuff.

‍

In 2026, Thrashville is pleased to announce that the festival is supported by the Australian Governments Revive Live program. Providing financial support towards the regional battle events and other festival programming and infrastructure.

‍

The festival will be a huge day of live music, accompanied by some evolving awesome stuff like pro-skateboarding displays, roaming performers, tattoo parlour, select stalls and live art displays.

Thrashville is rated MA+15. Whilst under age persons are welcome to attend, they must be in the immediate presence of a responsible adult at all times.
