ICEHOUSE & Don McLean Lead Massive First Lineup Reveal
The first artists for Savannah in the Round 2026 have officially been announced, with Australian music icons ICEHOUSE and legendary singer-songwriter Don McLean leading the first major lineup reveal for the festival’s return to Mareeba from 8–11 October 2026.
The announcement marks the first wave of artists for the four-day music and camping experience at the Mareeba Rodeo Grounds, featuring a mix of Australian favourites, international acts and rising stars across multiple stages.
Two more major artist announcements coming straight out of Nashville in April will further build the Savannah 2026 lineup, with more national and international artists still to be revealed.
ICEHOUSE, led by Iva Davies, rose to prominence with timeless hits including Great Southern Land, Electric Blue and Crazy, and remains one of Australia’s most enduring live acts. Joining them is Don McLean, whose legendary catalogue includes the global anthem American Pie and the iconic Vincent (Starry, Starry Night).
