CMC Rocks QLD will be held from 15-17 March 2024, featuring a fantastic line up of international and Australian country music artists. Headlining this year’s festival is Lainey Wilson, Chris Young and Tyler Hubbard.
Born from a passion for the genre, CMC Rocks had its humble beginnings in the early 2000s through a vision realised by the pioneering spirits of Rob Potts and Michael Chugg. 17 years later… CMC Rocks QLD is still delivering an incomparable lineup year on year, previously featuring artists such as Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, Taylor Swift, Luke Bryan, Darius Rucker, Morgan Evans, The Chicks, and the list goes on.
The unique on-ground festival experience includes a one of a kind bar – Big Time Charlie’s, Honky Tonk Stomp line dancing, the incredible Songwriters Show, a moment on the stage for the audience with Live Band Karaoke, plus so much more.
