Australian Grand Prix music stage
All of the headline artists listed above will be performing on the Lakeside Festival stage, which is located in the Lakeside precinct on the inside of the circuit.
As the map above shows, the Lakeside festival stage is located just behind the Brabham grandstand and is near the main Formula 1 paddock.
If you’re spectating at one of the grandstands north of the lake, you can use the floating bridge to quickly cross to the southern side and easily access the main stage.
Get ready to party at Albert Park! 🕺

The set timings for each artist listed in the table above may change depending on how the on-track sessions go. Any large delays to the motorsport timetable will have a knock-on effect on the start time of the music concerts.
The most likely to be affected is Anna Lunoe; her set is due to start only 1 hours 45 minutes after the F1 race begins, so any big delays will likely push her set back.
Concert tickets
To access the concerts, you need to have a valid Formula 1 ticket for the day of the concert you want to attend. That can be a grandstand ticket, a General Admission ticket or a VIP / hospitality ticket; all will get you access.
You cannot purchase concert-only tickets. You need an F1 ticket.
Tickets - Australian Grand Prix
If you still need tickets for the Aus Grand Prix you can buy tickets through Stubhub right up until the last minute.
I’ve used StubHub for F1 tickets many times over the last few years and have always had a great experience with their platform. They have also got a good FanProtect guarantee which keeps your tickets and money safe – good for extra peace of mind!
NOTE: If you’re visiting StubHub from Australia, you’ll need to use a VPN from another country to see the tickets available for the Aus GP. I use NordVPN who currently offer a 30-day money back guarantee.
Tickets include access to all fan zones and concerts on the day(s) of your ticket
Gates & access
Gates 1 and 8 at the Albert Park circuit will remain open until 30 minutes after end of the concert on each day. These are known as the After Dark gates.
All the other gates will close 90 minutes prior to that, so if you stay until the end of the music then you will need to use exits 1 or 8 to leave the venue. But if you want to leave straight after the F1 has finished and aren’t fussed by the music, then you can use any exit.
