Summer Jam Championship 2026


  • St Kilda, Melbourne (map)

The 2026 Championships will take over Melbourne’s Peanut Farm Reserve from 20–22 February 2026, following a newly launched four-city national tour with stops in Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.

Summer Jam blends elite streetball, music, fashion, food and culture, and consistently delivers strong visual moments - from high energy match ups and slam dunk contests, to packed crowds, creators, DJs and special guests (we even had Drake show up last year!). With basketball participation at an all-time high and past events selling out in minutes, this next chapter is set to be one of the most vibrant events of the summer.

The Summer Jam Tour will kick off in January 2026, bringing its signature energy to Brisbane (Sunday 18 January), Perth (Saturday 24 January), Melbourne (Monday 26 January), and Sydney (Saturday 31 January), before culminating in the Summer Jam Championships in St Kilda, Melbourne from 20–22 February 2026.

Each stop of the tour will host a free, family-friendly streetball festival featuring elite 5v5 competitions, live DJs, MCs, National and World Slam Dunk Contests, food trucks, prizes, and special guests.

Winners from each city will earn automatic entry into the Summer Jam Championship event held at Peanut Farm Reserve, St Kilda, Melbourne.
