With the autumn sunshine as a spotlight, and Launceston as the stage, Australian Musical Theatre Festival is back for 2026! Featuring an array of emerging and established artists from around the country, we invite you to experience the magic of musical theatre over five days this May. "It is a true joy to present the 2026 Australian Musical Theatre Festival program, which continues to celebrate, cultivate and educate around one of the world's most thrilling (and most popular!) art forms. "Launceston again provides a truly unique stage, allowing us to align the magic of Tasmanian culture with both traditional and contemporary musical theatre, through a variety of offerings that are unexpected, thrilling and inspiring. This is musical theatre unlike you've ever seen it..." – Tyran Parke, Artistic Director. Whether it's a brand-new presentation of your favourite musical, a chance to get to know Australia's greatest stars, or simply a reason to explore a city full of stories, we invite you to join us and share the stage.
