Christchurch’s Electric Avenue festival announces its 2027 programme, adding major international acts including Calvin Harris and Kings of Leon as headliners. The event is set to return to Hagley Park and will run for two days, according to the outlets.

Both reports say the lineup includes headline-level performers across different genres, with Harris positioned as the central dance and electronic act and Kings of Leon included as the leading rock group. The coverage frames the festival as a major regional event for Australasia and highlights the scale of the booking as the festival prepares for its next edition.

While the sources agree on the key headliners and the move to a two-day format, they differ mainly in emphasis and phrasing, with one outlet highlighting the “2027 lineup” reveal and the other describing the lineup as “massive.” Neither report provides additional performer details beyond the headline acts in the supplied text.
