Dance Party: BAUHAUS ELECTRIC

Step into a world where art collides with nightlife, colour becomes energy, and radical self-expression illuminates the dancefloor.

Bauhaus Electric is Coastal Twist Festival's flagship dance party for 2026, inspired by this year's festival theme of Radical Radiance. Bold, vibrant and unapologetically alive, this is a celebration of creativity, connection and queer brilliance powered by music, movement and light. 

Drawing inspiration from the iconic Bauhaus vision of art without limits, expect a night transformed by striking visuals, luminous colour, geometric glamour and electrifying beats. The dancefloor becomes acanvas. The crowd becomes the artwork. Together, we'll create a living masterpiece of joy, freedom and expression. 

Expect high-energy DJs, immersive production, dazzling performances and an atmosphere charged with pure electric possibility. From the first beat to the final anthem, Bauhaus Electric invites you to lose yourself in the rhythm, find your people, and bask in the power of collective radiance. 

Leading the charge is legendary headline DJ Stephen Allkins (Love Tattoo), a pioneering figure in Australian disco and house music. A legendary DJ, producer and tastemaker, he has shaped dance culture since the late 1970s. With decades of influence behind him, Stephen continues inspiring generations of dancers, DJs and producers.

DJ Estee Louder - Sydney DJ and CONTROL founder serving electro, techno and industrial beats with immersive, high-energy, community-driven dancefloor vibes.

Prepare for an unforgettable night as our festival headliners take the stage, bringing exceptional talent, bold creativity and undeniable star power through a series of electrifying performances.

More than a party, Bauhaus Electric is a declaration. A celebration of visibility. A gathering of bold hearts and bright souls who refuse to dim their light. In a world that too often asks people to shrink themselves, this is a space to stand out, shine brighter and be unapologetically seen. 

Whether you're a dancefloor devotee, a late-night reveler, or simply looking for a place to connect, Bauhaus Electric welcomes you exactly as you are. Come together under a kaleidoscope of colour, sound and creativity as we celebrate the beauty of collective radiance.
