2026 marks twenty years of Finely Tuned - quite the innings for any independent events company.
And while we have been cooking up a bumper year of celebrations for our birthday (watch this space - there’s much to come), we wanted to take a moment to look back and reflect on the incredible summer run we’ve just wrapped up to close out our second decade.
Put simply, summer 2025-2026 was by far our biggest, boldest and most impressive to date. From the sheer number of people who came to our events to the fastest sell-out in Lost Paradise history, the volume of artists booked, to the growth of our touring roster and our launching of The Works and DomeFest - end to end and across the board, we’re incredibly proud of everything we have achieved over the last six months. Swipe for some tasty stats →
To everyone who showed up, brought their people, danced, trusted us and helped fill these spaces with so much energy and love: thank you. You are the reason we’re still here - still fiercely independent - and still building dancefloors, memories and moments that mean something to so many of you two decades on ❤️
Stay tuned, summer 2026-2027 is already in motion as we begin to kick into our twenty-year birthday celebrations. Let’s dance!
We are Finely Tuned: an ideas company specialising in music, experiences and culture.
On the eve of announcing our lineup for Lost Paradise, we’re proud to unveil our Finely Tuned rebrand. Our clean new look for 2024 underscores Finely Tuned’s meticulous craftsmanship and passion for innovation alongside our championing of music, arts and culture in everything we do.
It launches today alongside a brand new website and company showreel (above) that we hope you’ll enjoy. Head to finelytuned.com.au to see more.
Here’s to bigger, better and beyond ❤️

New city, same Lost Sundays energy. We can’t wait to see you on the floor.
A look back at the artists who’ve helped shape LS over the past five years - the sets, the moments and the tracks that found us at exactly the right time.
From familiar faces to new favourites, local heroes to international guests, each one has brought the music, the feeling, the mischief, the sweat, the smiles and left a little something on the dancefloor.
Big love to the 550+ artists who’ve been part of the story so far.
We can’t wait to celebrate five years of Lost Sundays on June 7 🎈
Finely Tuned presents: RUZE
Straight out of Birmingham, RUZE have been doing the damage: basslines with weight, drums that snap and vocal cuts built for the thick of the dance floor.
With multiple Beatport No.1s, a chart-topping debut album on PIV Records and releases on Factory 93 and Hot Creations, the duo have become a firm fixture in the house circuit. From Tomorrowland to Fabric London, BBC Radio 1 to their own Staff Only Records imprint, RUZE are moving with serious intent.
Catch them spinning tunes across the country this weekend for their debut Australian tour.
JUST ANNOUNCED: Denis Sulta lands at Plaza Hotel on Saturday, June 27.
A true luminary from Glasgow’s prolific club scene, the producer and DJ has become one of dance music’s most beloved exports - an artist with the proven gift for turning dance floors into pure, feel-good chaos. This June, he brings the Sulta magic back down under.
Doors open at 10pm with supports to be announced soon 👀

We’re in for an extra special edition of Lost Sundays on June 7, as we celebrate half a decade of being your Sunday dance destination.
That’s five years of first dances, closing tracks, new friends, old friends, group chats, bathroom pep talks, Monday recoveries, long-weekend lock-ins, new favourites, and the kind of music you move to, get lost in, come back to, sweat through and carry with you all the way home.
To mark this milestone, we’re throwing a Block Party with the people, sounds and selectors who’ve shaped Lost Sundays from the very beginning. This one spotlights 25 Australian artists, from Lost Sundays OGs to the local selectors shaping the sound of Eora/Sydney right now.
Whether you’re front left in the Darkroom, cocktail in hand on the Rooftop, deep in the Cave or catching a moment in the Courtyard, we’ll see you for a birthday boogie on the June long weekend.
🚨 Plus: We’re hooking up one lucky crew (you + 5 friends) with free Block Party tickets + a $300 bar tab. You’ve got 24 hours to enter. Winners will be contacted via DM at 5pm Wednesday, May 6.
To enter:
• Follow @lost_sundays

• Tag the mates you’d bring in the comments (each tag = extra entry)
To everyone who’s danced with us, brought your friends, stayed for one more or made a Sunday feel like the best night of the week - this one’s for you. Tickets on sale now via the link in bio 🎈
