An Emo Extravaganza

Destroy All Lines is bringing us a celebration of the soundtrack that shaped a generation in February 2026, as An Emo Extravaganza brings some of alt-rock’s most beloved names back to the stage for three huge shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

Headlining the event are Florida alt-rock favourites Anberlin, including new live vocalist Matty Mullins (Memphis May Fire), who will perform their landmark album Never Take Friendship Personal in full to mark its 20th anniversary. They’ll be joined by Cartel, returning to Australia for the first time in over a decade to perform Chroma in full; Hot Chelle Rae, who will perform their breakout album Whatever; along with US pop-rock outfit Broadside, and acoustic emo duo This Wild Life, performing Clouded start-to-finish.

Keeping the nostalgia high throughout the day, AM//PM and Taking Back Saturday DJs will be spinning wall-to-wall emo and pop-punk classics between sets.

A loud, heart-on-sleeve celebration of the bands that shaped the scene, An Emo Extravaganza 2026 brings together the past, present and future of alternative music for a sing-it-like-you-mean-it reunion.

Presale begins Tuesday the 11th of November at 9am local time. 

General Public Tickets on sale from Thursday the 13th of November at 9am local time via Destroy All Lines.
