Record Store Day 2026 Information

🚨 SAVE THE DATE: Record Store Day – Saturday, April 18, 2026! 🚨

We’re back for ANOTHER Record Store Day—and if the past two are anything to go by, this one’s going to be HUGE! Whether you’re chasing limited-edition vinyl, digging for hidden gems, or soaking up the vibes with fellow music lovers, this is the ultimate day for crate diggers.

💿 In-Store Event: Saturday, 18 April 2026

🕘 Start Time: 9:00 AM AEST

💻 Online Sale (leftover stock): Monday, 20 April at 9:00 AM AEST

As always, RSD titles will be available in-store first, and anything still on the shelves will go online on Monday, 20 April.

This is the one day of the year where some of the most sought-after records drop in extremely limited numbers. If you want a particular release, your best bet is to visit us in-store on April 12 to snap it up before it’s gone!

All releases are first come, first served – no holds, no pre-orders.

How It Works

🛍️ In-Store – Saturday 18 April

We’ll be opening our doors at 9am sharp with racks stacked full of exclusive Record Store Day releases. These are one-off pressings, limited editions, coloured vinyl, picture discs, live recordings, unreleased cuts, and more—most of which you’ll only ever see on this one day.

No holds. No pre-orders. No guarantees. Just old-school record store energy.

Get in early and bring your wishlist—it’s the best way to score those high-demand titles before they disappear.

💻 Online – Monday 20 April

Can’t make it in person? Any leftover RSD stock will go live on our website from 9:00 AM AEST on Monday 20 April. We won’t be holding anything back—so what’s left is what you’ll see.

🖤 Why Record Store Day Matters

Record Store Day is about more than just picking up rare vinyl—it’s a celebration of music, discovery, and the culture that independent record stores like ours are built on.

It’s a day where music lovers come together to support local shops, unearth new sounds, and share their passion for analog listening. From first-timers to longtime collectors, everyone’s welcome to join the party.

Of course, part of what makes RSD exciting are the exclusive releases—special pressings, reissues, live recordings, coloured variants and more—many of which are available only on this day and in very limited numbers. It’s what gives the event its magic and creates that incredible “what’ll I find?” energy in-store.

 

🎶 What You Need to Know

  • 💿 Exclusive Drops: RSD titles are made for the day and often pressed in tiny runs. Once they’re gone, they’re usually gone for good.

  • ⚡ Limited Stock: We never know how many of each title we’ll receive until the boxes land.

  • ⏰ Be Ready: Check out the official RSD list, build your wishlist, and show up early on April 18—or jump online right at 9am AEST on April 20 to grab anything that’s left.
