So, you blinked and missed out on tickets to Laneway Festival in Brisbane, Sydney, or Melbourne? Devastating. But don’t cry into your overpriced festival resale group just yet because the official Laneway afterparties are here to save the day.
If you thought the party stopped when the festival gates closed, think again. Laneway is keeping the vibes going with a stacked lineup of afterparties across three cities, featuring a mix of festival favourites, international guests, and DJs who know exactly how to keep you dancing until you’re questioning all your life choices at sunrise.
Brisbane – The Brightside – Saturday, 8 February
Brissie’s sold-out Laneway gets an encore at The Brightside, where Melbourne’s fast-rising DJ STÜM is set to deliver a set packed with house, techno, and trance. If that’s not enough, NYC’s DJ Ivan Berko will be bringing his signature style to the decks alongside LA’s nate sib—aka 2hollis’ bestie, but more importantly, a killer singer, songwriter, and producer in his own right. Rounding out the night, local collective Cyber DJs will be spinning the club classics to keep the energy up.

Sydney – Oxford Art Factory – Sunday, 9 February
Sydney’s turn-up continues at Oxford Art Factory with Kaytetye DJ/producer RONA. leading the charge. If you’re into synthy, sleazy, proggy beats, NYC’s Fcukers and DJ Ivan Berko have got you covered. And let’s not forget local selectors Loosie Grind and BEMAN, who are primed to keep the dancefloor heaving well into Monday morning (sorry in advance to your boss).

Melbourne – The Night Cat – Friday, 14 February
Valentine’s Day plans? Sorted. Melbourne’s afterparty at The Night Cat is bringing the heat with RONA., nate sib, and DJ Ivan Berko, plus a very special set from the Laneway Festival DJs themselves. Expect a night of chaos, questionable dance moves, and new best friends you’ll never speak to again.

Get In Before It’s Too Late
These aren’t your average post-festival wind-downs—these are small, sweaty, expertly curated club nights that will sell out fast. So, if you missed out on a festival ticket (or just want to keep the party going), grab an afterparty ticket before they’re gone. You know the drill.
