First on the list: the current pop sensation, Chappell Roan, is finally taking the Laneway stage. The Midwest princess-turned-global superstar is bringing her full gothic fairytale fantasy to the southern hemisphere — a 90-minute extravaganza marking her inaugural Aussie tour. Mark your calendars: this is the live music event of the summer.

Joining the celebration? Wolf Alice — the Mercury Prize winners who practically defined “indie that truly rocks live.” Plus, Laneway is offering exclusives upon exclusives: Role Model’s endearing sad-boy anthems, PinkPantheress’ genre-blending internet pop, and the wild brilliance of Wet Leg.

In a collaboration that feels almost surreal, Yung Lean and Bladee are teaming up for a rare joint set, bringing the Sadboys universe to life — exclusively at Laneway.
