Amyl and the Sniffers to Headline Golden Hour at Bondi Beach in 2027

Amyl and the Sniffers will headline Golden Hour at Bondi Beach in 2027, in what’s being billed as the Melbourne punk band’s biggest Australian show yet.

The Grammy-nominated group tops the bill at the Fuzzy-run summer event on Thursday, March 4, with every act on the day fronted by a woman — Malyangapa and Barkindji rapper BARKAA and Western Sydney post-punk outfit Xiao Xiao join as special guests.

The Bondi date is part of a four-show Australian homecoming run that also takes in Brisbane’s On the Banks series (Feb.

26), Fremantle’s Palace Foreshore (Feb.

28) and St Kilda’s Palace Foreshore (March 7).

The Golden Hour series returned major live music to Bondi for the first time in more than a decade with its sold-out inaugural edition in 2026, headlined by Crowded House.

For the 2027 shows, the band has committed ticket proceeds to a range of charities, with the Sydney donation acknowledging the local response to the Bondi attack.

The homecoming caps a breakout international stretch for Amyl and the Sniffers.

Their 2024 third album Cartoon Darkness , produced by Nick Launay, debuted at No.

2 on the ARIA Albums Chart and became the band’s first entry on the Billboard 200, peaking at No.

196.

The album also delivered the band’s first Grammy nomination, with its single “U Should Not Be Doing That” up for best rock performance at the 2026 ceremony, alongside a BRIT Award nomination and performances at Glastonbury and Coachella.

At the 2025 ARIA Awards, the group swept four prizes including album of the year, best group and best rock album.

Fronted by vocalist Amy Taylor, Amyl and the Sniffers broke through with their 2019 self-titled debut, which won the ARIA Award for best rock album, and have become one of Australia’s most prominent rock exports of the past decade.
