TAILGATE Fest. Brisbane 2026

Brisbane’s biggest game-day takeover is back — and it’s almost sold out.

When TAILGATE Fest hit The Laneway Precinct and Pawn & Co in 2025, the energy was electric. The streets were packed, the sound shook the walls, and Brisbane came alive for an SB Monday like no other.

In 2026, the madness returns — bigger, bolder and louder. We’re turning the southern charm all the way up with a Bourbon Street–style block party, fusing American football passion with pure Brisbane energy.

General Admission is now fully SOLD OUT - claim an All-Inclusive table now!
