Ministry of Sound Summer Dance Festival returns this December! In 2026, we return to Kings Park & Botanic Garden with two epic new shows, each offering its own individual lineup, for a full-blown day-to-night celebration.

Both shows will be headlined by CLASSICAL performed live by the Ministry of Sound Orchestra, alongside iconic international DJs and a standout roster of homegrown talent.

This is a celebration of the greatest moments in dance music history and the artists who helped define our dancefloor; redefined, reworked and reimagined on a scale like never before.

This year brings the highly requested  launch of our brand-new VIP Deck Experience. Enjoy access to an exclusive private viewing area in front of the stage with plenty of space to dance the afternoon away, a private bar, complimentary drinks on arrival, VIP express check-in with a dedicated host, dedicated VIP bathrooms and a commemorative tour laminate.

All of your favourites still remain, including early entry options, lawn dancefloors, curated bars, plenty of space and the much loved deck area in front of the stage.

These events are always in high demand and are expected to sell out. Do not miss your chance to experience Ministry of Sound’s celebration of 35 years with CLASSICAL.

Set within the lush surrounds of Kings Park & Botanic Garden, this is the ultimate open-air dancefloor – soundtracked by the biggest dance anthems of all time.
