Groundwater Country Music Festival 2026

After establishing themselves as pillars of Australia’s electronic music scene for over a decade, Peking Duk—comprising Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles—are ready to captivate audiences nationwide with an innovative live experience. The acclaimed duo’s highly anticipated debut album, Paradise, arrives August 14, accompanied by a reimagined stage show that pushes the boundaries of their signature sound.

With 400+ million streams, 27× Platinum achievements, and multiple ARIA Award recognitions to their name, Peking Duk have consistently delivered chart-dominating singles including High, Take Me Over, Stranger, and Fire. Their evolution from festival headliners to touring powerhouses has cemented their status as Australia’s most dynamic live electronic act.

Paradise represents a creative milestone—a sonically inventive and emotionally resonant exploration of Australian identity and personal contentment. Rather than chasing external ideals, the album champions an intimate vision of what paradise means to each listener.

Experience Peking Duk’s bold new production, unreleased tracks, and signature euphoric energy across their national tour. This is electronic music at its most theatrical and immersive.

One of Australia’s greatest rock exports is coming home. Multi-platinum legends JET return to live shows in 2026, bringing the timeless anthems that defined a generation of rock music. From the stadium-filling swagger of “Are You Gonna Be My Girl” to the emotional punch of “Look What You’ve Done,” Jet’s catalogue remains as electrifying today as when they conquered the world in the early 2000s.

Inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2023, Jet’s influence on modern rock is undeniable—6x ARIA Awards, 10x Platinum certifications in Australia, and global sales exceeding 6.5 million albums. Their debut album Get Born didn’t just launch a career; it launched a phenomenon. This is your chance to experience that lightning in a bottle live.

Backed by Sydney’s explosive indie rock powerhouses LIQUID ZOO, a five-piece built for maximum impact. Combining the swagger of The Strokes, the grit of early Kings of Leon, and the raw intensity of Amyl and the Sniffers, Liquid Zoo brings the perfect high-octane warmup to get the crowd primed for an unforgettable night.

ARIA Hall of Fame inductees Jet live at Miami Marketta this November. Support from Liquid Zoo. Grab your tickets today.
Australian rock legends Jet are set to bring The Rumblin’ Regional Revue to Miami Marketta on Saturday 7 November 2026.
Originally hailing from Dingley in Melbourne, Jet conquered the globe after forming in 2001. Their 2003 debut album “Get Born” sold more than 6.5 million copies worldwide, securing almost 10 times Platinum certification in Australia and Platinum status in the USA and UK. The album delivered a massive run of classic singles, including “Are You Gonna Be My Girl”, “Rollover DJ”, and “Look What You’ve Done”, netting the band six ARIA awards in 2004. Both “Are You Gonna Be My Girl” and “Cold Hard Bitch” hit number one on the US Modern Rock singles charts, pushing the band to the top of festival bills worldwide.
Reflecting on the album, Nic Cester said, “Get Born was a rare and unique moment of total planetary alignment where we somehow managed to capture lighting in a bottle.”

A Legacy of Rock

Following the massive success of their debut, Jet released their follow up album “Shine On” in 2006. It was packed with melodic rock tracks like “Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is”, “Bring It On Back”, and “Rip It Up”, achieving platinum status in Australia.
The year 2023 marked two decades since the release of “Get Born”. To celebrate, Jet embarked on their first band shows in five years, playing the album in full to revisit the timeless tracklist that won them fans around the globe. That same year, Jet received the honour of being inducted into the ARIA Hall Of Fame.

High-Energy Support

Joining Jet at Miami Marketta will be Liquid Zoo, a Sydney indie rock five-piece known for their high-energy live shows. Their music hits hard with punchy riffs, driving rhythms, and anthemic songs. They bring a sound that channels the swagger of The Strokes and the grit of early Kings of Leon, combined with the explosive intensity of Amyl and the Sniffers and the fresh edge of Fontaines D.C..
The event runs from 6:30 pm to 10:00 pm at Miami Marketta, located at 23 Hillcrest Parade, Miami, Queensland. Please note this is an 18+ event.
