Zed 51

4ZZZ presents ZED51

Come market another day celebrating the furthering years of our beloved 4ZZZ radio station… and the cultures they generate from that power transmission of a nucleus.

As sure as day becomes night, 4ZZZ slips into the streams of creative diversity, as the risers of this vibrant ZED51 doorstep, cross over into another 50 years of a Brisbane community of media-active cultural spaces. In light of this ever-evolving radio station, and that idiosyncratic warmth of inner glow all were left with post October ’25 ZED50 celebration… it was hard to not continue this energising inclusive trip into our Meanjin futures.

Presented by 4ZZZ, Saturday 24th October 2026

is ZED51 – 13 bands once again cloaking the hills of Roma Street Parklands with music, stalls, and that incredible community spirit. Two stages, no crossovers, open to all-ages along with markets stalls, food etc running from midday to 10pm. Join us in such humble entreaties…

MUDHONEY played a show for 4ZZZ in 1990 at East Leagues Club March 10… and then that same year ventured back for the December 8th LIVID FESTIVAL in lieu of the 4ZZZ 15th birthday celebrations. And now moments converge with those progenitors of grunge once again heading back to Brisbane to play ZED51. Touch me… this is sick!

Power this all up for another lush day of community transmission!

Spread that feeling.

ZED51 featuring… MUDHONEY (from the US), BARKAA, CUSTARD, THE MARK OF CAIN, CASH SAVAGE & THE LAST DRINKS, SHONEN KNIFE (trom Japan), I HEART HIROSHIMA (one show reformation only), TAPE/OFF, DEM MOB, MITCH, PLEASE, SUPERHOTEL, STILL FULL FROM LUNCH, BABY COOL.

Onwards to more years of that people powered radio 4ZZZ
