Rhythm And The Reef

Welcome to Rhythm And The Reef, Mackay's premier multi-day music and arts festival held annually on the October long weekend. Over the past 3 years, our event has established itself as a vibrant celebration of music, arts, and environmental consciousness. At Rhythm And The Reef, we believe in the power of harmony between entertainment and sustainability. Our festival showcases a handpicked lineup of renowned artists, including Lime Cordiale, Luude, Example, Go-Jo, Running Touch, and Touch Sensitive, who captivate our diverse audience with their exceptional talent and energy. Furthermore, we go above and beyond by incorporating eco-friendly practices into every aspect of our event. From solar powered generators that minimise our carbon footprint to an innovative eco-friendly art program, we strive to inspire and educate our attendees about the importance of preserving our beautiful surroundings. In addition to the incredible music and arts experiences,"Rhythm And The Reef" offers a range of amenities to enhance our guests' enjoyment. Our fully licensed bar ensures a delightful selection of beverages, while the vibrant market vendor place showcases local artisans and entrepreneurs. To satisfy every palate, we have a diverse array of food stalls offering mouthwatering culinary delights. What truly sets us apart is our commitment to community collaboration. Rhythm And The Reef is the result of the collective effort of multiple local businesses and companies, all working together to create an extraordinary experience for our community. Through this collaborative approach, we have seen tremendous growth, tripling in size over the past three years, and we continue to thrive with no signs of slowing down. Our festival is more than just a weekend of entertainment; it fosters a sense of community adhesion and contributes significantly to the economy through overnight visitation, supporting supporting local businesses and stimulating growth in the region.
