-TOPIA 2026 brings electronic music, live sets and visual art to Abbotsford Convent

-TOPIA returns to Abbotsford Convent for its third festival edition and the ninth instalment of Tessellate Club’s wider art-and-music series. The programme moves between club electronics, live performance and visual practice across the site, with a music bill that includes Amaliah, Cousin, DJ Fett Burger b2b Telephones, DJ JNETT b2b Lauren Hansom, Nū + LOIF and a broad group of Australian live projects. The scale allows music to sit alongside installations, performance and visual work rather than reducing the day to a sequence of DJ sets. For Tessellate, the 2026 edition extends a series that predates the festival format and continues to connect local artists with international guests in one multidisciplinary programme.
