Halloween plans = sorted. Screamfest is taking over Sydney and Wollongong on Saturday 31 October 2026, bringing a huge night of music, costumes, scares and immersive entertainment to both cities.

Transforming Manning Open-Air and the University of Wollongong into the ultimate Halloween playgrounds, each event will feature its own lineup alongside multiple music stages, haunted attractions, scare zones, roaming performers, carnival games, food trucks, festival bars and plenty of spine-chilling entertainment.

And yes, costumes are strongly encouraged. With costume competitions and prizes up for grabs for the best dressed, now's the time to start planning something terrifying, hilarious or completely unhinged.

Whether you're in Sydney or Wollongong, expect a different mix of artists and plenty of spooky-season chaos across both events.
