Laneway Festival Skips Adelaide | Adelaide News

Adelaide’s music scene is reeling as Laneway Festival announces it’s skipping the city next year — a blow felt deeply by fans who’ve followed the event since 2008, and by local businesses that thrive on the festival’s energy. With big names like Charli XCX and Chappell Roan, Laneway’s absence leaves a void, especially as Perth is also left out, sparking outrage and a growing petition. Beyond the music, the economic ripple effect is real, and emerging SA artists lose a vital platform. Compounding the loss, Harvest Rock is also canceled, fueling demands for government arts funding. Organizers say this is a temporary pause to rebuild, but for now, Adelaide’s cultural heartbeat is quieter — and fans are left wondering if the festival will ever return as strong as before.
