GoldCoast Oceanfest Announces Fallow Year in 2026
It has become clear that Oceanfest needs to take a break in 2026. There are just too many uncertainties beyond our control affecting our ability to deliver to the standards that you, our loyal supporters, expect of us.
We would also like to acknowledge and thank both the National Trust and the new owners of Ruda, John Fowler Holidays, for their support and constructive engagement throughout our decision-making process as we look ahead to Oceanfest’s future.
We’re hyped to welcome three fresh additions,
41 SESSIONS bring drum & bass energy with local heroes JRDN and Sonny B + CANDAR, Local exports blending soulful vocals with raw, riff-heavy grooves. Scott Anchors & The Heavyweights channel 90s radio rock with indie Americana vibes

Here is a song which is about being there for yourself, not just everyone around you. My life changed a lot over the years, remembering to be kind to myself has helped get me through.
The acoustic version of Here is out now. I hope it helps you too 💚
