The fourth Airlie Beach Music Festival brings 74 acts, including international and Australian legends, to The Whitsundays for four days of spectacular entertainment from Thursday 3 until Sunday 6 November, and is the largest event to be mounted in this intimate, coastal and tropical paradise.
Surrounded by the Coral Sea, the Airlie Beach Music Festival is set in the perfect location and where you’ll be immersed in the music emanating from eighteen stages throughout this idyllic community, dancing in the pristine beach sand and blissing out under the stars, surrounded by the unimaginable beauty of the environment.
The oceanfront festival is situated at the heart of the Great Barrier Reef with the Main Stage under a massive marquee located on the water at the Whitsundays Sailing Club.
