SPILTMILK
The pop and electronic festival that tours Australia every December: the Victoria stop, in Geelong, with Lewis Capaldi and RAYE headlining, Saturday December 19, 2026.
Spilt Milk 2026
The Spilt Milk festival.
In a nutshell.
Spilt Milk is a touring festival that crosses several big Australian cities every December — Canberra, Gold Coast, Geelong and Perth for the upcoming edition. Born in 2017, it offers a pop, electronic and hip-hop lineup built around international headliners. The Victoria stop, now in Geelong after several years in Ballarat, takes place Saturday December 19, 2026 with Lewis Capaldi and RAYE headlining.
The festival has built its reputation on attracting big international pop and electronic headliners for a single day per city, rounded out by rising Australian artists — a formula that makes it a must for the country's pop crowd at year's end.
A one-day urban format, with no camping: the crowd stays in town in Geelong, an hour's drive from Melbourne, which makes it easy to combine the festival with a stay in the region.
