From homegrown heroes to global superstars, the festival is bringing the best of the best. Australian rapper BAKER BOY is set to command the stage with his fresh, boundary-pushing sound. With the release of his powerful sophomore album DJANDJAY in 2025, the charismatic performer is ready to show Australian fans exactly why he’s one of the country’s most exciting talents. That’s following his huge AFL Grand Final performance, where he appeared alongside Snoop Dogg – Baker Boy is unstoppable right now!

Joining him is the fierce and unrelenting DENZEL CURRY, a hip hop multi-talent whose return to Australia is highly anticipated. Known for his dynamic range—from jazz and alternative to punk—Curry’s performances are nothing short of electrifying.

For fans of smooth, nocturnal vibes, DOPE LEMON, the solo project of Angus Stone, will captivate with his signature blend of atmospheric grooves. Following the success of his 2025 album Golden Wolf, his return to Australian stages is set to be one of the festival’s highlights.

But that’s not all—Groovin The Moo is turning up the heat with some truly unique offerings. KATH EBBS will bring the wild, fun-filled world of queer line dancing with Cowboy Country, while breakthrough artist MAPLE’S PET DINOSAUR, a viral sensation from Newcastle, will charm with her infectious tracks and energy.

With his soulful voice and magnetic stage presence, MATT CORBY will bring a touch of magic to Lismore fresh off the highly anticipated release of his fourth studio album Tragic Magic in March 2026. For EDM fans, get ready for an explosive set from NINAJIRACHI, whose debut album I Love My Computer dominated the 2025 ARIA awards, winning multiple accolades and cementing her status as one of the country’s brightest stars.

The lineup doesn’t stop there. Gerringong’s THE TERRYS and Sunshine Coast’s THE CHATS will bring blistering rock energy, while Australia’s beloved TONES AND I will deliver her unmistakable sound, having spent 18 months dazzling international crowds with hits like “Dance Monkey.”

Adding to the local flavour, Lismore’s very own THE COLLIFLOWERS will join the party alongside ANGEL WHITE, a rising 17-year-old Indigenous singer-songwriter from Murwillumbah, who’s already making waves across the country.

As part of the festival’s ongoing commitment to homegrown talent, Groovin The Moo has teamed up with local music retailer PLANET MUSIC to offer a Homegrown Hero competition, giving local artists the chance to perform on the big stage. This initiative highlights the festival’s dedication to showcasing fresh talent, alongside its roster of established stars.

Groovin The Moo Lismore will be an all-ages event, running from 11am to 10pm at Oakes Oval on 9 May 2026. Ticket sales kick off on 3 March 2026, with an exclusive presale for Lismore locals.
