Caloundra Music Festival

Overview

Brisbanites, the last long weekend of the year before Christmas is upon us, and there are plenty of ways to spend it. But only one will have you dancing to an impressive lineup of bands at Kings Beach Amphitheatre — soaking in the spring weather, enjoying the beachside spot, and catching everyone from The Presets and Baker Boy to Client Liaison, Ben Lee and Art vs Science.

That event? The returning Caloundra Music Festival, which marks its 15th year in 2022. The all-ages fest runs from Friday, September 30–Sunday, October 2, which is perfect if you've actually given yourself a four-day long weekend (with Monday to recover), are keen to head along after work to get your break started with live tunes, or even just have a day or two to fill.

Also taking to the stage: Missy Higgins, Skunkhour, The Black Seeds and The Waifs, all from a wide-ranging bill that spans a diverse range of genres — and up-and-comers alongside veteran talents. The list goes on, too.

Camping facilities are available at Caloundra State Primary School, if you're coming along from Brisbane and don't want
to make the trip up and back multiple times.

And, because it's a family-friendly affair, there's also a zone for kids — if that helps make your festival experience easier.
