With just a month to go, Groovin the Moo’s one-off Lismore return is tightening into focus — and now, it’s getting an injection of pure, unfiltered energy. The addition of Jimi the Kween to the 2026 lineup doesn’t just round things out, it shifts the tone entirely.
Set to land in regional NSW on May 9, Groovin the Moo’s comeback has already stacked the deck with names like Baker Boy, Denzel Curry, Dope Lemon and Matt Corby — a lineup built on contrast, movement and cross-genre pull. But Jimi the Kween arrives operating on a different frequency altogether.
With a reputation forged across both Australian and international festival circuits, Jimi the Kween’s sets blur the line between club energy and theatrical spectacle, pulling together music, movement and presence into something that feels deliberately larger than life.
Elsewhere, the festival continues to invest in what’s next. The Planet Music Homegrown Hero Live Finals will see emerging local acts battle it out for an opening slot, grounding the event in the same grassroots spirit that has defined it for years.
As part of Great Southern Nights, this Lismore edition carries extra weight — a one-off return that feels less like a revival and more like a statement. New energy, familiar DNA, and a lineup that understands exactly what this moment calls for.
