Gold Coast free event Broadbeach Country Music Festival has announced a name change to Groundwater Country Music Festival.
Now entering its sixth year, the name change and rebrand reflects the event's status as Australia’s fastest growing country music festival, with attendance numbers increasing by 77 per cent this year to 54,000 people.
Stay tuned for an announcement coming soon of their biggest line-up yet. Fans can expect the festival to stay true to its country roots while following the current music landscape to attract diverse audiences. "We have been blown away by the growth of this festival on the Gold Coast," Broadbeach Alliance CEO Jan McCormick says.
"In just five, short years it has become one of the biggest music festivals of its genre in Australia and is a must-do on the events calendar for music lovers and artists.
"Our small team are very experienced in producing events and we understand how pivotal artist programming is to keep surprising and delighting our loyal attendees whilst opening the door for first timers."
'Groundwater as a name is reflective of Australia’s unique culture, drawing from both the Aboriginal people’s close spiritual connection with the groundwater as well as the farming community’s reliance on groundwater for survival.
'Groundwater reflects the innate culture of the Australian people who use the rivers, lakes, streams, and oceans as a central part of life. Groundwater is the common denominator in bringing people together.'
