Queensland music fans are being called on to have their say for The Triffid's 2026 Queensland Album of the Year!

Returning for its eleventh year, the annual celebration recognises the albums, artists and music coming out of Queensland, giving fans across the country the opportunity to decide which local release will take home the 2026 title.

From established names to emerging talent, The Triffid's Queensland Album of the Year has become an annual snapshot of the strength and diversity of the state's music community, recognising the fans, venues and industry that support it.

Join us in the Beer Garden to celebrate this year's nominees and the announcement of the winner, with acoustic performances from six local artists. Each will put their own spin on a track from one of this year's nominated albums, with Karma Police covering Radium Dolls, Tomorrow's Forecast covering Platonic Sex, Charlotte Meade covering Clea, Frank & Louis covering Tom Busby, Koady covering 2charm and Tear Drive covering The Jungle Giants.
